Riding the Centrifuge

Right now I feel like I'm on one of those rides that spins you around so fast you stick to the wall and then the bottom drops out. I have so much on my mind and on my plate, mostly lofty ideas and projects that need to be completed. I have the motivation, but not the time and money to do it all. If I could only stop time and work on all of it without having to deal with ordinary life. The hardest part is knowing that if I don't do it all, it really won't matter. The sun will come up tomorrow and the earth will keep spinning. The only disappointment will be knowing that I could have done more.

We judge ourselves by what we feel capable of doing, while others judge us by what we have done.
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
