Do I find pleasure in self-destruction: doing harmful things to my body, testing its limits, with little or no regard to my health and well-being? It sounds so pitiful. Maybe one day I'll care as much as I should. God, give me a reason.

i know now why my grandmother likes to clean. well, i can only speak for myself, but it's an empowering feeling: sweeping, dusting, mopping, washing, (almost) vacuuming. it's a part of sustaining creation, rearranging matter, from chaos to order. i feel really good about myself right now.
Lately I've been struggling with trying to understand my contribution to eternity in this life. I've been thinking a lot about how I'm spending my time and what difference I'm really making in this world. Good things to think about I guess. Trying to be more carefree, I often discourage myself from thinking about things like that. People talk but I don't want to just talk. I don't want to grumble either; I want to be part of solutions.
