greenstormThe right thing to do always occurs to me. I just don't always do it. Sometimes I don't realise it's the right thing to do. Sometimes greed, or laziness, or actual lack of ability keep me from doing it. It's probably the latter less often than I'd like to think.
Tonight is a good example of that sort of thing. My gut instinct spoke up a good couple of times and I ignored it, thinking that if I stuck my nose in the air and didn't look down I could run fast enough to outdistance the stuff I saw coming. I couldn't. I didn't really think I could, anyhow -- I just didn't think. I didn't sit down and wonder, where is this feeling come from and should I really follow it up?
There are definitely choices to be made about which parts of the outside world I can keep up with and which I can't. I can't do it all. I can't do it all. And I think I'm doing a lot, lately?
Is it okay to focus on some stuff and let other stuff slide?
Will it be okay?
