You really do know your firearms Galen. :)
I think I remember you post that you used to be in the military? There must be a lot of pretty cool military stories under your belt I assume. I think it may even be in some of your 2900 posts somewhere in there. The thing about your stories is that I like to really take my time to calm down a bit and read it completely focused. I feel that there is something I can learn... ahhh.. Its hard to put a finger on it... There was another person who inspired me just by reading his stuff focused and it reminded me of your blog posts.
Calvin and Hobbes...
although it looks like a comic book... there are some really deep questions asking about how we understand ourselves and others in our very complex world and leaves the question as is for us to think about our own answer. I feel there is some level of similarity in your own way.
You asked an interesting question on your gun ammo post which I am pondering and constantly thinking lately. Very interesting you mention it too... such timing... Crazy~~ hahaha. And It might be the most important question in which I will need to take action soon.
"Do I have a job that I have to get to but have been avoiding?" Actually, yes. Thanks for asking really.
What to do next, after the burnout. :)
I believe, if we are all honest with ourselves, the answer to that question is yes.
We all avoid things that we should be doing like...being more humble and kind, telling those we value that we value them more often, saying thank you and I appreciate you a lot more and taking a stand against evil more often, standing up for those who cannot do so for themselves. Things like taking more ownership, laying less blame, showing more integrity...
Of course, there's many other things as well, that's just a few.
Thanks for your comment as always, it's late here and my comment is probably insufficient to answer yours but I have to get some sleep before a big Thursday with several important appointments.
