Wow, these last few weeks have been insane! Somehow I ended up with two jobs in my lap which overlap making me constantly busy. I have finished my degree. Sjona and I are still in the process of moving. Everything is different, everything has changed. My life is moving on.
Do you ever notice that successive stages in life take on distinctly different flavors?
My professional life is taking shape. Every day brings the fresh experiences, challenges, and doing-ness I have been waiting for after what seems to be a stale eternity of studying and preparing. Other parts of my life have been neglected. I have not been active in the Baha'i community just as fundamental transformation is manifesting. Sjona and I rarely see each other, let alone spend quality time together. I have neglected the strands of creative and exploratory writing which keep me sane and engaged. I have stopped exercising. Instead I wake up and I go, I do, I am acting without being.
August is when I end my research job and stop working 60 hour weeks. I am hoping that is when I can find balance again. I hope I can survive one more month of this.
