Sudden, Abrupt, Malicious Fate

I haven’t been posting much lately as I’ve taken a good, long vacation this past month.  Unfortunately, the vacation turned into a severe health crisis almost overnight and a good deal of it was spent in doctor’s offices and hospitals.

It wasn’t my own ailment that caused this and all is fine now that everything has been (medically) addressed, but it does cause a certain paranoia to think that one moment you can be having a great time and the next be in such extreme pain that you would rather die than go on living.

As a result of this experience, I’ve begun to reflect on the priorities in my own life and have started planning some shifts in accordance with these re-evaluations.

Do the things you find the most fulfilling.

Money isn’t everything.

We all have very little time left amoung the living.

Some of this is super-obvious… I know.  A lot of it is clichéd.  I’m super-paranoid now because it’s all very true.
