"In the absence of clearly-defined goals, we become strangely loyal to performing daily trivia until ultimately we become enslaved by it."
-- Robert Heinlein, American Novelist
"Most men lead lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them."
Henry David Thoreau
"Do you ever feel like you wake up every day and it is exactly the same as the day before? Like nothing ever changes?"
Phil in "Groundhog Day"
Wow, nearly 37 years at the USPS is a lot like Groundhog Day. I've got to choose and define some goals before I die with my song still in me. Those who have heard me sing think that may be a good thing.
The more people I get to REALLY know, the more I realize how much courage it takes to choose a new direction and follow it with determination. And the more I respect and appreciate those few who do that boldly. So, I have to get off the computer now and go for a long run.
