Time.

Visiting places I've not forgotten but simply ignored for some time is an interesting feeling. Past ambitions flow freely into the river of thought, and I find myself looking back at the gentle ebb that temporarily engulfs my conscious. Perhaps you also have a feeling of dejection as you gaze upon half finished projects, or perhaps projects that were completed but failed to better you. What good is justifying yourself a failure? No, ambitions are always changing and I'm sure we've both bettered ourselves in other enriching pursuits. I wanted to better myself, I wanted to better the world. Although a positive outlook, such a though can be nothing more than judgemental fog, obscuring our actual ambitions. Instead we should ask why we want to better ourselves, or the world around us. Instead we must go beyond. Ask 'What can I do to better myself so that I can better the world around me?'.
