Every now and then, I get a little twinge of moral dilemma -- or maybe it's a burgeoning mid-life crisis -- that I'm not doing enough with my life. Don't get me wrong, all in all, I have a pretty good life, my one major tragedy exluded. But sometimes when I'm supposed to be pushing another pixel around, I dream of doing something that would leave the world a better place.
Now, I know this probably happens to everyone, but it's happening to me more and more these days. I think about creating, expanding or documenting knowledge to pass along to future generations and it just seems, well, like something worthwhile.
But I have responsilities that I can't just walk away from. My four legged kids depend on me for their welfare and let's face it, they're my familly. My parents are getting older and I worry about being too far from them. And I love the fact that I see my youngest niece and nephew at least once a week and have a great relationship with them.
So I'll just keep pushing the pixels during the day for now and dream big at night. At the very least, I can expand my own knowledge so if there ever is a chance, I'll be ready!
