What is it that we (or is it just me?) are all constantly pursuing? Contentment? Avoidance of some internal, eternal loneliness? Maybe it’s just the down after my up.
But it seems like there’s these times when I’m trying to find something…I just don’t know what. I feel a lot of things run through my head…that I need to DO something, as in something meaningful (volunteer my time, better someone’s life), that I need to improve myself (reading, training, hobby, physical exercise), or that I need to reach out to someone (get in touch with old friends, do something with existing friends, find and make new friends that have some subject in common with me).
I have so many great friends it’s not even funny, I should be ever so thankful. I have a wonderful home filled with toys and geek gadgets galore, and most importantly, family and a significant other that I don’t know what I’d do without him! So I shouldn’t complain, is my point, I s’pose. Nevertheless, that ongoing itch that must be scratched is a good thing. Perhaps it’s what drives us all forward, forever bettering ourselves and others, reaching out to others, and enjoying life.
It’s funny though, of all the above things, I’ve e-mailed with a few old friends of late, I’ve found forums to chat with those who share a common interest, but I find the physical exercise part the last thing I do, or I skip! ![]()
