I’ve felt this way for a few years now…

Everything I do every day seems like just one big “to do” list that I’m checking off before I can get back into bed. Get myself ready for work? Check. Get the kids ready for school? Check. Get to work? Check. And so on until the last kid goes to bed at 9pm.

I’m just going through the motions. I have everything I need to be happy – great career, family, money, etc… But the side effect of this, that people never mention: having everything you want really takes the excitement out of your days. There are no big questions left for me to answer about my life anymore.
