Sometimes I get caught up in a vortex of difficult thoughts. I don’t mean the worrying kind, but the type of questions that leave me anxious and concerned.
I worry about what world my children and grandchildren are inheriting and how I might have a positive impact. Finding www.thirdact.org as a way to contribute to the solution provides some solace, but the threats to future generations are substantial.
I think about how long I will have my health and faculties and how, as an unrelenting believer in self-sufficiency, I will accept help and assistance. I am attentive to my health, but there’s so much beyond my control.
I fret about leaving this world without making a sufficient impact.
By the way, this is a terrible spiral if I dwell here long enough. But the reality is, it also kicks my ass into gear to think of ways to help others.
Am I alone here? Does anyone else feel this way?
Share, if you will….(either way…it’s ok to tell me that I’m a bit nuts)
