Just Monday?

I took this picture last year, it's entitled: "Charlie Brown's Success"

It's still just Monday?
It feels like I lived a couple to a few days today. I probably lived them inside of my head. Because of this, and some reflection,This came about:
So many adventures await us in the future. Many of them are happening now.
I am going into training for a new job at SCC which will provide a bit more than tutoring which is such an enormous blessing! preparing for the portfolio class though is challenging, and I thought that I would have more time for preparations, nope, I don't.

"What challenges are these but that which lead us to greater heights? Are they such ephemeral things as to be like dreams, such languid thoughts stirred up in fervor once minute thoughts pursue them into magnification. Aye, such languid dreams. Were I but wiser I would have more purpose to pursue such dreams, but as of yet, I live them into fruition. I do not beg to create them, but to pursue them, ensure that their completion come to fruition.
Such thoughts, such meanderings down the pathways that only the mind may lead us upon, bear witness to the jumble that lies within. Where would we be without such remembrances? Purely mathematical beings that urge nothing, nor expect that which is filling of the mind with wonder. No joy in purpose, no sorrow of releasing a loved one, no melancholy at the thought of the now-faded rose. What reason would there be beyond ones' self other than purpose? I challenge the harborer of yesterday to release it. There is no absolute perfection in a mind preoccupied and focusing entirely upon self-fulfillment.
Such thoughts are rebellious against the nature of masses. Condemning in content, I keep them, but I share them, questioning the duality of what is "out there and commonplace" and what is "inside my mind; a truth I hold dear". There is no replacement for the time spent today.
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Jesus Christ. Philippians 3:14
Oh philosophy. I took the classes, now I can never go back to how I used to think!
