Time is a funny thing (part 2)

Back in June (of 2008) I alluded to some of my thoughts about how the subjective experience of time depends a lot on our state of mind or consciousness in general. A later post also teased at the follow up to all those intriguing topics.

This post isn't going to be about any of that.

What this post is about, is the fact that it has been sitting in a draft in my WordPress for nearly a year. Eleven months! Why is that?

It really goes to show just how funny of a thing time really is. June 2008 felt like yesterday and oh my how the time has flown by. The second half of 2008 was an interesting time. I made my share of mistakes but set the stage for some great successes as well. And so far in 2009 those successes have been falling into place. Six months ago if you'd have told me that the love of my life would be moving in with me in late June I would have laughed.

Work has taken its fair share (some might argue more than its fair share) of time lately as well. It built to a head not that long back but I learned an important lesson in the process. I learned that while I have capacity for taking on a lot (not just work, but many other things as well), I do have some limits. A lot of that has more to do with keeping myself happy than it does with any actual "limits"; sure there are of course real limits to what I can handle, but the bigger question is how much do I want to tackle, why, and will it bring me closer to my goals?

It's interesting (to me) to see how my life has progressed to this point, and I'm really looking forward to the next chapters. Does that mean a new begining around here? I suppose it couldn't hurt.
