A metaphor

I haven't posted my daily drawings in a while. They
are done. I caught up last night. I had been about by
about 5 days. I've been catching up at work and here
at night.
I was talking to a friend and he said if I was
falling behind maybe I should just stop all together.
Been a good run but if I'm not keeping then it's done
what it has done and move on. Those weren't the exact
words, and it was a brief commentary regardless, but
that is how it went in my mind.
But I won't stop. I don't want to. It was fun, and
some nights its amazing what I can do, and other
nights I have to force myself to draw, and just
aren't happy with what I'm drawing. And I wonder, is
my drawing a metaphor for my life. Should I just let
things go. They've done what they've done and its
time to move on.
But I'm stubborn. Oh how I can be stubborn sometimes.
And thus probably won't move on. 230 some odd
drawings in a row. How do you just stop doing
something like that? It is practically a legacy. An
expectation. And I like it over the long run. And
when I don't draw for a night I'm disappointed for
not doing such. So I can't give it up.
Like I said, a metaphor.
