For one thing, if Amy were caught up in this mental rat-race which you describe, she wouldn't be living in the Northern Berkshires. Jeezum Southview,

You couldn’t be less astute. For one thing, if Amy were caught up in this mental rat-race which you describe, she wouldn’t be living in the Northern Berkshires.

(a play on words) So that qualifies me to blog the following: You seem to feel that in order to fulfill yourself, you need to be an achiever. You seem to feel that if you don't have a goal to conquer each day than the day isn't worth anything and is wasted time. That is so very far from the truth. You also seem to be preoccupied with getting older and dreading the day when you can no longer set goals, (psychical and mental) and realistically achieve them. With men we call this "The Mid-Life Crisis". With women we call this "Panic"! Here is the problem....by chasing the future we miss the here and now! By judging life by how many goals we have achieved, we miss the essence of living life for the sake of life it's self. Running by the rose bush and not stopping to smell the roses because you have a superficial goal to acheve,....is not how life was meant to be lived! Look around you....You may find that you already have achieved everything that is worth achieving. Dr.Jack Dennum, office hours M-F 12Am to 2Am Hmmmm…Amy, I am known as Dr.Jack Dennum by some folk.
