siviwe It has been ages since I put anything up here. Back then, I was still unemployed and trying to figure out what the next couple of years of my life would entail. Some of these I am still keen to follow up on, but the timeline may be pushed back a little more.
This has probably been the first year I haven’t had much in terms of new year’s resolutions. The fall out after a lengthy term at one’s last employ will do that to you 
Anyway, from 1st Feb, I have been happily employed again. It is what I refer to as soul-fulfilling work; and it’s been a long long time since that’s happened.
My only concern to date is whether I sufficiently learned from my last similar engagement. In other words, will I fall into the same cycle of working for money rather than love in a year or two when the company has grown 3fold? Will I get bored and want to leave? I guess the most important part lies in being vigilant for the signs.
The other important bit is that I have significantly downscaled my life. More downscaling is required to reach the level of simplicity I resolved I would get to while on my drinkfest during #Eurotrip2009 with @denhamcoote. These things tend to take time, more time than I have the patience for usually, but they have been in progress since I got back.
So, should in year or two, I find that I no longer love what I do – I will be able to simply walk away without worrying about how I will pay for my dogs’ food. That in itself is a liberating thought, as I do not want to see myself going through working because I HAVE to and not because I WANT to.
Not everything in my life is as I want it, but absolutely loving doing what you get up and do every morning till late at night everyday makes the other stuff seem silly.
I am happy(tm).
