Racing time

I have so many things I want to accomplish in this life, and I feel like I'm racing the clock to get them all done "In time."

In time before my parents go (God forbid), so they can see me succeed.

In time before I meet someone and get married.

In time before I get real responsibilities.

I know that only God can know how much time I need. And how much time I'll have. The unknowing and uncertainty are killing me. I feel like I've wasted so much time already (although, at the same time, not really. At least now I kind of know what I wanna do).

feel this way too. Hurry sickness. But realize life is passing me by because I live in the future and have slowly tried to enjoy the present moments. So hard for me to do!! I use deep breathing technique to try and quiet my mind and listen to the world around me.

Breathing techniques can indeed be very helpful, I agree. Sometimes I just forget to breathe, but I should. Thanks for the idea :) I hope it's going well for you

You too. Thanks for responding to my post. Happy holidays

no need to hurry and life will turn on a dime on you at any point. be realistic with yourself and much more than accolades enjoyment of life is what’s important. coming from someone whose done a lot been everywhere and most likely met them. it all sums up to nothing, yes it’s additive. joy is all that really matters. love yeah ok, but that’s tricky, joy isn’t.
