In reading your posts over the past few months and talking through LJ, it seems like you've been through a lot of what I'm going through now.
Yeps had a very prosperous career ahead of me in consultancy, a seen as a talent in my branch of profession, but first a burn-out, the hardship of conceiving & RSI forced me to stand still and wonder what I really wanted in life. So yeah, I love the morning where I am the one to be the first that Kevin sees, sitting in a chair in his bedroom while we both gaze out of the window to watch the birds and clouds. My last boss was convinced I threw away a good career and life, but I beg the difference. I am following that what my heart desires and I am so happy.
I wonder sometimes if I am odd because people in this area seem to value and emphasize what I find is unimportant: things and money and empty titles/incomes. (Then again, I have always known that I am odd! :^P) I just want more than this. I guess I'm selfish. :)
Hmmm know, everyone their own path to walk. For some such a flashing life makes them happy, a shiny car to drive, the status that comes along with the profession. But can they enjoy the little things in life, can they for example enjoy encountering a deer on their path in the early morning or do they molest the hooter of their big BMW?? Maybe they do. But I sometimes think I was born in the wrong age, I've always been a dreamer and writing stories in my head, singing soft songs and such. I need nature to feel complete and I would be unhappy without it. A bard indeed ;)
And you should talk about Kevin! To everyone and all of the time! He has every right to be the center of your life (and I, for one, love your posts about him. I read every one and love all the piccies!)
Yay :) I love writing about him, he makes me laugh so often. Hubby says that I should laugh more because that was one of the things he fell in love with me.
There is so much more to life than "status" and money.
Yups there is, but for some it takes a crisis to realise that, for others a natural transformation to it.
He's on his way. ;) (What about Celegorm? Orome taught him nothing? Sheesh.... :^D)
LOL have you not read the entries this summer where Celegorm only added animals to the zoo I have here? An affectionate crow, a pair of lovely ducks, a frog, a falcon/hawk, a harrier, magpie... I kid you not! I do have to say, those birds of prey do clean up after themselves. But the chatty crow scared the heck out of hubby, that I offered the bird something to drink from a cup and such.. so yeah, that's what going on over here.
