What now?

INCIDENT:
I haven't posted in awhile cause I have been a bit busy with a momentous occasion in my life and it seriously took all of my focus and energies for the past couple of weeks (or rather months depending on how you count...). But now, that it is over I am left wondering, what next?

MORAL:
Have you ever worked towards a major goal? Where you are almost blinded by everything else that is going on around you and particularly by the goal itself that you can't see past it (or perhaps you just haven't thought about what happens after you accomplish it...). It's a strange place to be... somewhere in goal purgatory. It's a bit of an uneasy feeling not knowing what to focus on next, but it can also be a really wonderful place to be.

How often to you get to say that anything is possible at this moment? - A moment when in an instant you all of a sudden have more free time (well, at least perceived free time, since all those other obligations that you had before are probably still there)... A moment when you can start working on something that you have wanted to do for a long time... A moment to re-evaluate what is most important in your life. So it's really the perfect time to tackle one of those personally important things on your to-do list that doesn't have a due date. You know all of those dreams and thoughts that you have in any given day - to take up a new sport, to learn something new, or to start volunteering for a worthy cause. Do you ever wonder, when do people have time for all of these things? Well, the answer to that question is right now.

I know exactly how you feel! I've been asking "what now" this past month too.
