It’s all just…never-ending. I can’t do it all…or really any of it. The rest of my life looks like a never-ending stagnant grind right now. I’ve really tried to finish anything, but when the timeline is years?! How do I even do this when I’ve only got like…50 years left? And MOST of that time is grinding a job?

“Start now” I hear you all say. I’ve done that. Everything is indefinitely unfinished. I don’t have the time to commit to it, for another hobby or interest is more engaging.

    It took me roughly 20 years to finish the book I started writing. There were many times I doubted I ever would, but I did finally finish it, and that feels good. The next one shouldn’t take quite as long, but it might still take 5 years. I’m ok with that, because I enjoy the process more than the end result.
