You both described me very well! spiritalk I smiled when I read your post, because my screen name on the internet some time ago was "wanderlust" and also the name of one of my favorite songs. It goes:
"I want to see where the sirens sing
Hear how the wolves howl
Sail the dead calm waters of the Pacific
Dance in the fields of coral
Be blinded by the white
Discover the deepest jungle"
Yes I want to do so much, and I'm not sure of which path I should take because I like so many things. I usually begin something, then something else, and then something else and try to do everything at the same time. That gives me trouble focusing and believe me, I've tried. Lately I discovered meditation and it's helping me. And yes you're right, I noticed that when something is not ego-based, not for the means of my own pleasure, but for helping others, it's easier to focus and get it done.
CMyst77, I think the heartache situation you sensed is the breakup of a 3 year old relationship I had with a person I thought would be the one I'd spend my whole life with. It was in part due to lack of comunication from both sides. This was months ago, I went through a lot of pain, but even if it still hurts a bit I take it now as a big life lesson and I'm grateful.
Thank you very much to both of you!
