Ok, I know it has been a looooong while - I am now up and running with an internet connection at home, so there should not be such a large gap in my future.
So I find myself on July 2nd going about my regular everyday business as usual, and I can't help but think "Is that it?"
Is this sum total of regularity the full spectrum of what I was meant to experience?
Don't get me wrong, I have a good life.
My own condo, slowly but surely filling to capacity with furniture (and more importantly a phone, internet and TV).
I have great friends whom I have a lot of fun with (and the sunburn to prove it!)
But there is something nagging at the back of my brain telling me that if this is it, this is not what I signed up for.
And I am not talking about being single vs. being married or coupled.
I am not looking for roller coaster drama (being a teenager brought enough of that about)
I am looking for meaning.
I know it sounds weird.
Some days I think that any other person could step into my life and take over my tasks with barely a hiccup.
What is it about the things that I do, that makes them important for me to be the one doing them?
I keep coming to the same conclusion - Nothing. It's all stuff anybody else could do, and most are.
I mean seriously - where's the meaning in doing the laundry or making the bed or cleaning the house or making a meal.
I don't mean to say that I don't or can't do these tasks with some level of skill, I know that I can and do.
Is that it?
Is this the most I can milk out of life, regularity...
Will I just slip back into my routine and let the regularity lull me into thinking this is good enough?
Is it good enough?
Do I have the right to expect more?
Can I achieve more? How?
In other news - I have some routine things to take care of that I should be getting back to.
