The Process of Life

Sometimes, I am so strategic about my life -- setting goals, chasing after them, checking things off my list. But it seems like more and more, life just happens, and all my energy is spent just responding -- tending to a personal crisis, watching a sick kid, getting the car fixed etc. This week, I feel like I need to be strategic (I have a speaking engagement coming up and a major presentation to make) and yet life seems to be happening (the aformentioned sick kid, a sleepless night a couple nights ago that I'm now paying for, etc.) Not sure why I felt the need to blog this...I guess that's the beauty of a blog...there really doesn't need to be a reason.
