I feel like I've been going in circles for a while now. Every time I seem to be moving forward I end up back in the same place. I'm not sure if the way out of all of this is right in front of me and I can't/won't see it or if I just think I'm running in circles.
It's an odd feeling, because at the same time I'm moving forward in other aspects of my life.
For example one of my recent big projects is moving along (not quickly but it's progressing according to the predicted timeline).
Another, less obscure example is that I've been finishing games.
I beat the original Prince of Persia. For the first time ever. I've been playing that game off and on for 19 years. It was kind of nice to be able to mark that down as finished. Very simple ending but worth it all the same.
I also finished Rogue Galaxy. Fun up until the point where it wasn't. And the ending was really lame.
I played through Flower, which was a real treat and I have also finished the story mode of Little Big Planet, which was delightful.
I've been writing a bit more, and I should be picking up the pace on that as well.
So yeah, on one hand I feel like I've ended up back at the start again, but on the other hand I've been completing things. Maybe it's just a way of wipping away some mental cobwebs.
Maybe I just need a change of pace. Lets see how things go after this weekend.
