Kid,
I think you are right in the 'doing for others' area. I started doing volunteer work (the only upside to unemployment?) and it is about the only thing that I feel useful doing, even though I don't really do that much. It is a good feeling in the wasteland that is my head.It is hospice work--talking with folks who are literally at death's door--something I feel eminently qualified to do.
I agree with your post that if we use our gifts and talents we will be happy at our work; I've found it's just hard to get paid for whatever mine are.
And, as for time...the older I get, the faster it speeds by; I completely relate to wanting things to go more slowly at times.
