Self-determination is fine but needs to be tempered with self-control.

If you want an update on my life, you only need to read the last few posts.

I'm working on it.

I feel a sense of urgency.

I'm currently dating.

And, I spend a lot of time thinking about the person I want to be.

It's a reminder about how much doesn't change very fast. I have been feeling like I need a bigger change in my life. I feel like I need to uproot something. My house? My volunteer gig? My friends? My job?

I have been looking more closely at graduate school and job options. But I'm not sure if any are the cure for my feelings.

Since PJ died over the summer, I'm reminded how short life is. And I spend a little more time counting my blessings.
