Jobs

I don't have one. I need one.

A movement in the right direction?

I am just about done with Cumming, GA. It has been my home for almost nine years and I have never really felt like things were exactly the way I wanted them to be. I look around each day and see the same things over and over again, wondering what will get me out of this mundane day to day. Starting over is an idea I have had for a long time now and never really had an opportunity to experience. I am sure there were a few chances but I most likely pushed them away with the notion that it would be to much work and I would be alone in my efforts.

It is amazing how one phone call can decide your future.

I was having an unusually boring day at work, probably because it was memorial day, a national holiday were no one works and if they do it is short hours, so I called my brother to express how my job sucks and I need a new one. He simply replied " Why don't you move in with me?". Just like that, a chance to escape and start new with someone there to help if things get tough. Not only is my brother there but his wife and my nephew as well, who are always fun to be around. And so I will be moving to Woodstock, GA. It is a minor step but a step in the right direction. I will only be an hour away from where I am now but I need this disconnection from what is currently the norm to really see who I am and what I can create.

As I travel through to the unknown I will see with my eyes open, and I will take every moment in with great gratitude.

Some time has passed

It is good to let time pass before I write new blogs. Things work themselves out, and other things are just starting to happen. I needed change, and I got plenty of it. I was looking for something to change me. I wanted something to happen that caused me to get off my ass and achieve. I always have ideas of things I would like to do, and if I would actually apply myself and do, then I very well may get somewhere.

I often get really into something, like art or photography, and can't stop drawing or taking pictures. But within a week or two this usually passes. I discontinue my productive actions and go back to my routine of work, eat, sleep. I give myself nothing to look forward to and just go into the back of my mind to have a few drinks with my soul.

... I had to stop writing and go to work. Then I went to a party. Now I am home. Many things happened today. Emotions were up and down. Mostly at a peak high. Unfortunately they have fallen. I will go to sleep now.

Two days have passed and I am feeling alive. I took advantage of a day off and was productive. Family is coming all this week for my grandmothers 90th birthday this weekend. It will be good to see everyone again.I don't feel like writing anymore so I will end this with a quote i feel is fitting.

"We must walk consciously only part way toward our goal, and then leap in the dark to our success. "

Henry David Thoreau
