Back to Square ..Something

A person walks down a road and falls into a hole.
A person walks down the road, wants to avoid it but still falls into the hole.
A person walks down the road, sidesteps, looses their balance and falls into the hole.
A person walks down the road, crosses over and misses the hole.
A person walks down a different road.

I do not know how many times it will take before I realise that there is only so much a person can handle. After working too hard and making myself ill I am having to rethink my work life. Did I mention whilst being asked about clothes shopping I was hanging on every word in the book I was reading - David Loy's Study in Comparative Philosophy. Being 'dedicated to a better cause' by sitting quietly in an office is as good as giving free aid to Africa without teaching them any skills. Ahhh, the propaganda we sell to ourselves sometimes ...

So I am back to that place where I love being the most - not knowing what's next.

Well, on Wednesday I'm off to Switzerland with 3 people who all play major roles in my life, so I am sure I'll return with a few good ideas about making these big dreams a reality. Or possibly I'll learn to yodel, make cheese and ....

Until then, I thank Gabrielle Gaiselman for a lot of inspiration ...
