My never-ending to-do list...

  • donate the clothes I don't wear

Its numerous items crawl into my head as I go to sleep and greet me first thing when I wake up.

  • clean the "junk" closet

There is an illusion, if only I can get the next big thing done, I will feel less restless.

  • finish the unfinished song

That there will be relief.

  • get together with a friend to talk about what's going on because I know I can make a difference

That I will be able to focus on something more important.

  • figure out how I will contribute to saving the world

There will be a sense of completion or even maybe even accomplishment.

  • pay bills that fell through the cracks

That life will be lighter.

  • organize receipts

But it doesn't work like that.

  • respond to long overdue emails

Today I am taking a day off. I won't attempt to check-off any of these. Cheers to life without a to-do list.
