Is Your Work Larger than Life?

There are days I get lost at work.  Yesterday afternoon I found myself lost in multi-tasking the healthcare data I’ve been grinding away at for days, the chapter I’ve been trying to finish for months, and the daily barrage of emails.  I smiled, the picture I’d taken in the Colorado Springs airport flashed before my eyes.  Work had become larger than life.  Years ago I published a poem called the Chase, and a few lines rang so true, “we race through life, always feeling one step behind that which we chase / our path becomes a maze which we pass through many times / never looking back to catch a glimpse of that which we’ve been chasing so very far behind.”  Don’t let work get larger than life today.
