Apparently similarly to Captain Jack Sparrow, I am unable to get my compass to work properly as I am unable to formulate what I might like as an alternative to my current day to day.</p> <p>&#160;</p> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://lgb.vox.com/library/post/do-you-feel-like-i-do.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c225214fad8fdb00e398b0cfc50005?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> http://lgb.vox.com/library/post/do-not-and-do.html?_c=feed-rss-full nobody@vox.com(Lara) http://lgb.vox.com/library/post/do-not-and-do.html?_c=feed-rss-full http://lgb.vox.com/library/post/do-not-and-do.html?_c=feed-rss-full Wed, 19 Sep 2007 14:36:57 -0400 <ul> <li>i do not&#160;sleep as much as i should, or nearly as much as i might like to.</li> <li>i do not&#160;eat properly or healthily.</li> <li>i do not&#160;read enough, or nearly as much as i might like to.</li> <li>i do not write enough, or nearly as much as i might like to.</li> <li>i do not manage my(our) money as well as i should, or nearly as well as i might like to.</li> <li>i do not communicate with those i care about as well as i should, or as well as i might like to.</li> <li>i do not work hard enough to break the bad habits and behaviors i possess, or nearly as much as i wish i would.</li></ul> <p>However:</p> <ul> <li>i do have a reasonable job, with nice benefits and a relatively comfortable work enviornment.</li> <li>i do have a happy, healthy growing daughter with a killer sense of humor.</li> <li>i&#160; do have a husband who loves me and tries&#160;to do right by us.</li> <li>i&#160; do have a nice place to live, even if the house itself has some issues and flaws.</li> <li>i&#160; do find myself to be happy much more than i feel unhappy in my life.</li> <li>i do make sure to consistently visit the doctor(s) that i need to to maintain my health and continued life.</li> <li>i do yearn for more for myself and my family, in terms of looking to future goals and hopes and dreams.</li></ul> <p>i see progress in myself and for my family.&#160; that makes me happier than anything in the world.</p> <p>i do not&#160;know what will happen tomorrow, but i do hope that each day will be better and happier than the one preceeding it.</p> <p>&#160;</p> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://lgb.vox.com/library/post/do-not-and-do.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c225214fad8fdb00e398aa409f0002?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p>
