I am in a drifting mood today...not in the mood to accomplish much, not really feeling sad or happy, just contemplative and unclear....where do I go from here?
In my 20's I had imagined reaching a point of relative clarity when I would have some idea of what direction to head in. I imagined that the answer to "what do I want to be when I grow up" would suddenly appear out of the darkness and grab hold of me.........yeah......still waiting. I have been told that this expectation is an unrealistic one, but when I read articles about people who build sand castles for a living and those who come up with simple ideas to pursue that lead to a high paying, satisfactory career doing something that doesn't feel like work....well I just wonder why I can't be one of those people.
It is not that I am not thankful for what I have going on.....I just know that I am not exactly feeling content if this is my path....hmmmm.
