decide what the hell I would like to do with the rest of my life (read all 4 entries…)

Whew, LOTS working on this one!  — 2 years ago

It’s been a while since I checked in on my list …. the last entry I was surprised at 201 people choosing to use the headline I’d picked … and now there’s 1,617!! Lots of people looking for answers!

How am I doing with this? Well, these days I have a MUCH clearer understanding of what does make me happy, what brings me joy and satisfaction. I have yet to figure out how to bring more of that into my life however.

I am working on looking for another job; for me so much of my day is spent working and to be working in a job that brings misery makes no sense to me. I hope that finding something that gives me greater purpose and allows me to be more ME will help give more direction in my life.

I think if I can ease some of the frustrations I can begin to appreciate the journey more rather than feeling so much like I need to get to a destination.

Easier said than done though!

Let it go!

One day I was feeling lost, trying not to think on what the future may hold, I was scared, tense, big decisions and so little time to take them. If I choosed this, then this, else.. and so and so.

And then it happened, there was a rainstorm forming in the distance and the sea colours started to change so beautifully, I became aware of the moment, sudden enlightment sort of thing, everything seemed going so slow, I felt content of who I was, where I was and what I had done. That feeling is still with me, I open my eyes everyday and feel wonder, I still do worry about the future, of course, but I no longer let those worries to define my actions.

Enjoy the journey, at the end of it I think, you won’t be proud of whatever social, professional or financial goals you acomplished among your peers, you’ll be proud of the little miracles you worked on yourself and unto others, and judge if you had had a good life, worth living.

Beautiful moment

Thank you for sharing that beautiful moment with me!

Little miracles, wow, what a way to think of it!
