T O P I C R E V I E WEverEvolvingSpiritLinda talks alot about round holes in square pegs and vice versa. For many years I did this. I worked at places that caused me unhappiness, stress and depression. Now I am in school for doing what brings me joy and I feel so free! I will feel better once I can earn an income.My family often told me writing was bullsh*t. I know they meant well, but telling this wasn't necessary the best advice, I make it a point to tell my son everyday to do what he loves.So my question for you guys is, what makes you happy career wise? What brings you the most joy and excitement? What is the one thing you'd do whether you got paid to do it or not because you feel so much love and passion while you do it?Have a lovely day PixieJaneLibrarian. I used to be a volunteer and I've thought hard of getting a MLS to be one professionally. Even though I'm not a volunteer now I tend to act like one, even in helping others at the library.Still, I had a very bad experience with a library board, even as a volunteer, and it keeps me at a distance. For now, anyway. Ami AnnePsychic readings ------------------Jesus never put his trust in man cuz he knew what was in man.
