Hiya, gang.
Sheesh, whatta quarter I'm having. Papers, exams, projects, quizzes, and the marathon weekends for the masters degree... I have come to a conclusion... henceforth, I use ONE, count'em, ONE criterion for any pursuit: If I had a year to live, would I be doing THIS?
Anyhow, I'll be finishing up the quarter, then do finals. Then not register for Winter quarter at Cal State. I am reminded why I didn't do "college" forty years ago. Still, I am glad I at least checked it out. Don't wanna be sitting in my rocker at 93, wondering if I shoulda "gone for that degree..."
I do want to continue in the Spiritual Psych masters program, the marathon weekends and all - and I can do that for the whole 2 year program, for a certificate of completion instead of a Master's Degree. I would certainly be deeply immersed in this course of study, if I had a year to live.
Yesterday I took a break and took a walk. First time in weeks. A walk... It was glorious - happened quite by accident. I had destroyed a tire on my car, and had to find time yesterday morning to take it to Costco and buy 2 new tires... Okay, lady, it'll be about 3 and a half hours... YIKES!! But I have homework! Oh, well, I'll walk along the Venice canals and out on the pier, watch seagulls, BREATHE. Wonderful.
So that's the news - I have missed y'all...
