So Many Unconscious Thoughts Steer Us

Lately I keep feeling that there isn’t enough time, and I’m tense. That’s how I can put it into words now; in fact, I act on it without being aware of it.

For example: I have to do a lot of meaningful things, I can’t fall behind, I have to keep going late into the night, I have to make use of every minute. But that isn’t what the problem of time is. I always have some unfinished tasks. Why can’t I live in the present? Why do I have a task, instead of simply living each day?

Why do I stay up so late, as if there were no tomorrow? As if I needed just a little more time. It can wait until tomorrow. I’m going to sleep.
