mlerulesThinking earlier 'bout the importance of a sense of accomplishment, of wanting to progress, of thinking I should be heading somewhere, of the want/need for goals & motives & direction(s)...incidentally for meanings. Then stumbled onto a discussion of similar issues in a http://www.quartertothree.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20160. It's always easier to work towards something if you have something to work towards. Dunno why this seems anything other than absurdly straighforward (yet also somewhat twisted) to me right now. Seems like I spend more time working towards figuring out what to work towards than...no. Not so. It's just that right now, this summer, where I'm at these daze, I'm once again in limbo, only this time there's no particular end to the limbo in sight as matters currently stand. It's not like summer vacation will end and school will start again...unless I get a job teaching, or doing something else. Or something. Or other.
I was perfectly content - ecstatic even! - this entire past week (when outta town) to have nothing in particular to do and nowhere in particular to be on a regular basis. This feeling'll pass...but I'm thinking I should pay attention to it, listen to myself, think more about it and come up with some goals...and ACCOMPLISH SOME GOALS/THINGS. Find/recreate ToDo lists and get going on 'em. Figure out what I want & need and how to achieve 'em. Fashion/discover goals that'll (along the way - the journey - and in the end - destinations/accomplishment) satisfy my needs and wants and desires and yearnings. I desire desire. I yearn for yearnings. I want a greater, larger, more active Mutual Admiration Society.
