Karen changes what she can’t accept and accepts what she can’t change.
I’ve come to the conclusion, finally, that there are many things that I will never get to do in my lifetime. There’s simply too much to do and see, and not enough time for it all. There are things I have tried to achieve and haven’t succeeded at, or things I’ve left too late, or things I don’t have the money, skills or knees to achieve. It’s easy to become melancholy, but I think it’s more productive to accept it and get on with making the most of whatever I do. In the spirit of this, I’ll share a few of the bike-related ones, just so you can either sit there and feel smug that you’ve achieved one or more of these, or lament with me.
Too many places and not enough time
This one applies to many of us.
