CommunityExcellence - Marcus and Me In Need of a Burn

I feel the need for a burn. Something hot inside me to add the extra energy I need to accomplish my goals.

I am physically active. It's not like I sit around all day with my thumb up my butt. But at the end of every day that effort always seems to leave some intended milestone out of reach. Too much nonsensical activity or not enough burn?

Mentally I feel strong. My mind is forever adding to my fiction, cutting through possible entanglements, and identifying new ways to address the questions that pop into the path. Too many distractions or not enough burn.

Emotionally and spiritually things could be better. I seem to regret so much of what is contained in my life that might have been different if I had a burn for those things that really, REALLY matter to me. I mean the me in the mirror.

Marcus - View the other epochs of time ... and see how many after great efforts soon fell and were resolved into the elements. But chiefly thou shouldst think of those whom thou hast thyself known distracting themselves about idle things, neglecting to do what was in accordance with proper constitution, and to hold firmly to this and to be content with it. And herein it is necessary to remember that the attention given to everything has its proper value and proportion. For thus thou wilt not be dissatisfied, if thou appliest thyself to smaller matters no further than is fit.
