Change

Three years is a long time. And your priorities change, you know?

Things you wanted to do become things you don't really care about. And more urgent things rise as you're just... living, and not keeping track of it.

I think I've learned a lot about just living these past few years.

Making a list is suddenly appealing again though, but I dunno. I don't know how constructive it is, really.

A lot of these things I have no intention of doing anymore but I'm still debating on whether I want to create a new set of goals....

Sleeping on it!
