Figuring it out

I'm sitting here watching The Deadliest Catch.  It is in memory of Captain Phil Harris who died last year.  I am realizing how short life is and experiencing an epiphany.  I need to get my shit together about my future.  I can't seem to make any decisions.  I don't know what has happened to me.  It's easier to float I guess.  I never used to be like this.  Does that mean I'm depressed?  It's like I'm having commitment issues.  It's definitely not for lack of trying.  There's always seems to be an obstacle.  Or am I making it an obstacle? hmmm.. 

What I really want to do is open a Nursery.  Unfortunately it is unpractical in Massachusetts.  Correction, it is possible but seasonal work.  Can't support myself on that.  So I scratched that off the list.  My next idea was Medical Assistant.  After doing research, I've discovered that most mediacal assistants are now required to draw blood.  Isn't that what a Phlebotomist is for? So I scratched that off the list.  Idea number three-Physical Therapist Assitant.  Major job requirement is to be able to lift patients.   I have my own physical impairments that have required therapy, so I scratched that off the list.   Are you noticing a trend here?    GRR, is it possible to have a mid -life crisis at 39? I can't just buy a corvette and get myself a boytoy to fix this.

If you're trying this, and trying that, and nothing is working out, it means that you need to back off.

Let your unconscious mind work on the problem, and then, out of the blue, the way should open up to you. Usually in a direction that you hadn't thought of.

Thank you for the reminder Robur. You are right. I want so bad to make a change it's hard to relax.

You have to follow your passion, Moonwillow...Don't give up on your dream with working in a nursery. I know you have strong faith and magick in you without even meeting you in person. You'll find a way to follow your dreams and still thrive like a beautiful flower, I know you can!
