When I realized the Olympics were right around the corner, I realized I haven't written on my blog for almost 2 years, since the last Olympics. Good news is that means that I have been busy having a life.
Unfortunately, I'm at a place in my life where I am struggling to find meaning. I work all day, and go to church on Sunday, fulfill my calling and try to squeeze in time for exercise. But every once in a while, I end up with a couple hours to myself and no idea how to fill them. For someone whose mother used to say "only boring people get bored," I find myself in a difficult place. In those moments I wonder why. What good is my life, what am I doing to make my life worth living? Am I making a worthwhile contribution to the people around me?
I know I need to have some unstructured time in my life. But what do you do with that when you've got it? How do you make it feel like it is constructive time? In my busy moments, I think, if I just had some free time to do whatever I want, but then when I get it, I have no idea what to do with it.
Let me know if you have any suggestions.
