Can We Really ever Catch up? Do We Need to?

So my last post was a month ago and what a month it's been. DECEMBER!!!!! Like that old saying, I say "You don't know it's begun until it's over" Well, December is over and I barely realized it had begun. In fact, my December 1st post was "catching up" So this one is "Can we really ever catch up and do we need to?"

I guess it's easy really. Catch up to what? Like there is something out there living our life's the way it's supposed to be and we have to catch up to that level of perfection.

Catch up to ourselves, maybe?

Perhaps and perhaps not. What I really think we mean when we say we have to catch up is we have to do the things we have not done, say the things that need to be said and bring ourselves current.

Staying Current is a much better alternative to always having to catch up. I often see myself as the little kid with the adults and I have to run to catch up with them because they could walk faster than I. Still, what kid doesn't love to run? I did. So I kept on picking those I saw "beyond" me and ran to catch up.

When it comes down to it, I really don't think we ever need to catch up because where ever we go, whatever we do, there we are. There is no catch up in the now.

You've done it again. Within your short post is that wonderful germ of truth to chew on and digest.
