2005-02-07 every now and then i force myself to re-learn something... about myself. that sentence was quite awful. every now and then i remember that i am a person of ideas, not necessarily actions. or maybe more accurately, i am a person with a ton of ideas and ambition/energy enough to begin many endeavors but not necessarily see them all through. case(s) in point: this month i have a ridiculous number of thoughts "in the works" to a greater or lesser extent, but no clear idea as to how many of these will come to fruition. for example: -i am halfway through the application process to donate eggs. etc etc etc etc what does fruition mean anyway? i do honestly believe that the process/journey is more valuable than the end product, so the fact that some of these projects don't crystallize exactly how i mean them to doesn't relegate them to a "failure" or "unfinished" pile. right? my dreams lately are full of half-remembered to-do lists and projects and people of the past. am i trying to clear out the half-empties only to create a new pile of them? today during a leisurely dental visit (i know leisurely isn't usually a word one associates with dentists, but my dentist is very, very special and a great conversationalist) -- my dentist and i made plans to open an organic italian bakery somewhere here in the city. see how i get myself into these things? i love it and hate it about myself.
