I love this reflection! So much to think about. I feel as though I grapple with this all the time. This may be why my drive at work causes imbalance with my home life. I’m always trying to figure out why I don’t have enough hours in my day - and really, maybe I’m missing the root cause.

I’m going to snag this book to read and reflect more on this!

I feel like it happens more to women than men, but I may be biased. I have plenty of time, really, so for me it's not a work problem...it's more of an existential thing about why I'm here on this planet, and what am I supposed to be doing, and is it enough to just simply live in the moment and take what comes to you? I waffle back and forth on that. I don't know if I'll ever truly figure it out.

Yes, you are just a weirdo human living in a less-than-perfect world. But you make it a better place for everyone who crosses paths with you.

There's so much to learn I would gladly live a couple centuries just to experience more (if health wasn't an obstacle) I think maybe you've accomplished an incredible amount but there's still so much more you want to do that you think you haven't done enough. It's an illusion.
