Lazy Tuesday. Not feeling the words or the work or basically anything. I’m not quite sure if there is a lingering depression going on, but there is definitely a low vs. a high happening with me lately. I don’t feel peak. The weather is helping me feel better than I had been, but generally speaking, I’m not who I want to be on any level. I think life goes like that sometimes. Ebbs and flows. I’m feeling like I am in an ebb over the past month or so, and I see it wearing on those around me. I gotta get my stuff together, because I’m running out of time to have time. There is more and more pressure building around the work space and the learnspace. There is going to be less time moving forward to get anything done, so I need to get back to being organized and productive in shorter bursts of time.
I honestly don’t know how it all got away from me.
Some Thoughts:
- Part of it may have to do with the way the world seems to be heading in a bad direction. I was studying the so-called Protect College Sports Act, which appears to do little more than protect the power 4 and create conditions where students cannot move freely without giving up their chance to play. So, if you play sports you get penalized for going to another school now? Coaches aren’t penalized for going to another school. They don’t lose a year of work off rip. These students do, based on this. I’m not here for this.
- Turns out I’m not here for a lot of things. I sometimes wish I would run for office and really speak truth to power. Then I realize I value my time way too much to be effective. That sort of thing ruins marriages.
