Free Will

How much of my life has been a reaction against something negative instead of a turning toward something positive?

I'm questioning a lot of my so-called choices lo these last 26 years. It seems to me that they were less choices than reactions to being pushed one way or another. Why the heck do I spend 11 hours a day in a cubicle?!

I miss my children, and I don't think I'm accomplishing anything that somehow is more noble or valuable than meeting their personal needs for time and undivided attention.

All of this reflection is probably coming up because of the impending Case commencement.
