Crisis, huh? I just realized I'm older than most of the people posting in here and I've so few accomplishments to show for my spent years. When you guys were in college, I was filling sand bags in Iraq. When you were in grad school, I was poking roadside bombs in Afghanistan. The skill set that I've developed is nearly useless for Joe Civilian. Relaxed happiness is something I have a hard time attaining. My wife left me without saying why, I had house built and never set foot in it... I'm struggling to accumulate life merit badges so I can be just like my idea of everybody else out there. I've been playing catch-up for years. Turns out you can't stop time and thus can't catch up. I'm getting better about the stress. Perhaps all this my crisis. Running, crawling... sometimes I feel like I'm ready to get everything done and just go 'n zip myself up in that sealed metal sleeping bag they snuggle under six feet of loose earth.
