Milestone

I'm the kind of person that always needs a milestone to reach for, something coming up on the horizon.  Whether it's a holiday, my birthday, a vacation, an appointment, or just the weekend, I like to know what's coming up next.  I suppose I'm like this because I want time to have some context.  How can one appreciate time if one has no reminder that time is passing?  Don't get me wrong, I love to live in the moment, but I stay grounded by thinking about what's coming up. 

I'm not really sure how to explain it any better than that.  Is anyone else like that, or just me?
