I Need a Life Coach

I think I am starting to run around in circles. And just think, that's what dogs do - and we laugh. For what it's worth, that's not a good sign. I hoped that there would be more clarity during grad school, but I honestly don't think I'm closer to a goal. I'm not getting any younger and I'm too experienced and talented to still be struggling. So, I think there will be some major decisions made in the months to come. I need to figure out my true passion. What gives me the most joy and just do it. No excuses. My problem is that I keep getting distracted along the way.

At the Ecstatic Dance Anniversary at the Sweet Ballroom in Oakland I saw these people who consider dance as their church. It felt like they just HAD to dance. I did enjoy it, but I would have been just as happy to watch. Once I did get dancing and truly let loose a natural smile came over my face and I understood why people congregate there every Sunday. It's not that I suddenly felt like I had to make this a weekly ritual, but there was awareness in the power of dance.

I need to find what does that for me.

I again avoided working on the Definitions section of Funny Bone and updating my Invoices. Instead I started to clean my email inbox and work on Laughter is a River. I will get up early to do a little work and then head into the city for a Greenleaf delivery. I hope to do a little Nathan work if the Casual Carpool cooperates and gets me in to SF with time to spare.

The running continues.

Gratitudes:
1. the return to flossing
2. Randy for joining me on pizza & beer and listening to my concerns
