Consumed


I used to believe and say I was detailed oriented and had to find out everything about a sport, subject or piece of technology if I became interested.  That it was a good thing. 

Now, I believe I allow myself to be consumed by the quest, research or interest. 

I am not sure that is a good thing.  When I am consumed by work, my family and health suffer.  When I am consumed by a new bike or such, my wallet suffers.  When I am consumed by fretting or worry, my mental health suffers.

I must learn balance and faith.  Being consumed is not so fun anymore...
