Lately, my work has been all about updating the undergrad admission student view book. So I've been communicating with a lot of students.
Every once in a while, I can't help but play career counselor (just an eetsy-weentsy bit), and say (especially to the liberal arts majors), "There are so many careers and so many paths out there! Don't sell your self on law school just because you were an English major!"
I know English major who became web designers, IT gurus, technical writers; an art majors who has been a librarian, professional organizers, and feng shui consultant; a philosophy major who has done various things in marketing, writing and now is doing some personal coaching.
Life is long. The world is wonderfully messy. That's the fun of it.

Running Downhill
Is it my imagination, or is the speed of life, the speed of change, increasing? It's like running downhill. Your feet have to keep moving, ever faster or you'll fall on your face.

I used to think it was increased responsibilities, ie time's up before its all done.
Then I thought - decreasing energy ...ie insufficient oomph...perspective.. time is moving fast in relation to what I get done.
Then I thought - increasing volume of worry and mental perplexity..ie insufficient focus, makes time disappear while one is not paying attention to the moment.
Then I thought it was neural network slowdown ...again makes time appear to be moving faster.
Today, I think its because we don't sit in a classroom every day and watch the minute hand, and because we don't have parents who make us stay home and be bored.
