I am having more bouts with melancholy these days, and I don’t know why. I’m sure I know part of why, but it’s deeper than that. More layered than that. So as I look outward, I also find myself looking inward as well for things I’ve missed that were obvious to others. I have a trait that is both very usefull… and at times very damning. I can focus on whatever catches my attention and work out potential problems and solutions, but in the process lose sight of things around me that are much more important. I am desperately trying to focus on the big picture and not the minor imperfections.
