a lot of thought cycles have been devoted recently to thinking about what i want to do when i grow up. i guess it’s normal at this stage in life to start processing the whole, “what do i want my legacy to be?” do i want it to be about the work i’ve performed? do i want it to be about race palmarès? do i want it to be about how well i raised my son? and the thought hit me that once i’m gone, what does the past really matter? why do we dwell on those things or look to build up a collection of events, awards, items, etc? i think the more we look to the past, the less time we have to focus on what is still to come. so, i decided that i want to live a life where i’m excited for the many opportunities and adventures that lay ahead rather than dwelling on the failures, ‘what ifs’ and accomplishments of the past.
