Ever Feel This Way?

I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see. ~John Burroughs

I could easily add "and all the books I want to write" to that list. There are some days I look up from my life and realize that, even at the still-sort-of-young age of 39, there isn't enough time. To read all the books I want, to write all the stories I want, to DO all the things I want.

But, what I do have is right now. This moment. So, I shall choose to seize it. To read, to write, to do at least a fraction of the things I want to do. Today. Carpe diem and all that jazz... :-)
