I had to chuckle as I finished this poem. I seem to always want to accomplish more than I feasibly can...doing so creates frustration....you're right..satisfaction comes before my contemplation :-) wishing you a splendid evening, Sara

LOL! I don’t meditate at what I didn’t get done (anymore) but rather take into account those things I did get done…satisfaction, sweet poet!

Sometimes instead of a 'to-do' list I find much more joy in a 'got-done' list, makes me feel much more accomplished than the to-dos!

In the dictionary maybe. Thinking can have a downside, on that I can agree. Have a pleasant weekend, Gershon. Bill
