What do I want to do with myself? How can I get there?

At least he was until he found that being paid to play sucked all the joy out of it, so he went back and got a certificate in human resources.

There is a book out there. Alled Do What You Love, The Money Will Follow. It’s almost scary to read,et alone follow!

I like that 🙂 and I have done a lot of it! I agree with Kristine, knowing what you want is definitely half the battle! Hold on tight to your dreams!! (& Honey!)

Knowing what your desires really are has been a tricky one for me. Just when I think I know what it is, it changes!
I agree with what Houndstooth said too, sometimes, for some people getting paid for your desires may take some of the spark away from it. I am trying this out now and will get back to you:)

Oh say *blush* – I didn’t realise the dog was part of it ;p

Grassy areas with no dogs on them? That would be unheard of here! Every park becomes a dog park here lol

It is such an interesting question. And one that only becomes available to us because we live in a society with so many choices.

It sounds like you’ve considered this question a lot and I appreciate your thoughts on whether making your passion a job would diminish its enjoyment.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately. Here’s a post from another blog that I found thought-provoking. As a teacher, you might find it interesting. http://www.getrichslowly.org/blog/2012/03/18/reader-story-i-quit-my-passion-and-took-a-boring-job/

Don’t let Georgia know she’s not your heart’s desire. What more could you want than to make her happy? 🙂

As for the sailboat? From your keyboard to God’s ears…

We have grassy areas nearby. But we rarely run into other dogs playing in them. We frequently take Honey to a nearby park to play fetch and never see other dogs.

The “official” dog park is a short bike ride away but a bit too far to walk comfortably. That’s where the bike cart comes in… hopefully.

I just made an appointment with a trainer to start getting some help working on this.

Well, I’m on a track. Is it right? I guess it hardly matters. The path we pick becomes our true path, doesn’t it?

It’s a good thing you have the social life of your blog to keep you from withdrawing too much. 🙂

Thanks, Roberta. I’ll have to assume that not knowing exactly where I’m headed is all part of the path.
