TO DO list
We put together these TO DO list, but life rushes by and the
list gets longer and longer and we
feel worse and worse because we
can't
keep
up.
But we've always known this, oder?
Haven't we lived with the motto
that whatever is unnecessary
will
fall
away.
And it did, didn't it?
You fell away.
Our "career" in science is falling away.
Our chances of a life as husband
as father
is
falling
away.
And what is left? Just a clean blade, waiting?
How many clean blades are waiting?
An army of clean blades waiting?
Waiting
for
want?
I wrote this in June 2012. Here it is only slightly edited for clarity.
