The standard that I have chosen to live by has its advantages and It also has some disadvantages.  The advantages are mostly obvious, but the down side sometimes is a surprise.  Right now I should be feeling pretty good about my day.  I actually did quite a few things on my 'small victories' list. But I don't feel that good about them.  I think its that moment of satisfaction that seem to shrink the further we travel down our road of progress.  In other words, we grow as we learn how to spend less and less time celebrating and more and more time looking to the next project or task at hand.  This is a thing that I have experienced before, but I didn't think it would be such a part of the 'road of progress'.  So, what I did get done does matter and will contribute to future endeavors.  I just can't enjoy it for very long.  Soo, what about tomorrow.  There are still things on my 'list'.  And I'm sure many more tasks that I haven't listed yet.  So today is now ended and limbo comes in with the night.  Tomorrow writes a whole new chapter.  Maybe more normal, mundane tasks.  And, who knows, maybe one of the extraordinary events might find its way into our day.
