| I took Jonny's suggestion and I've been rating my days in 2008 on a scale of 1-10. I thought it'd be interesting to run some averages:
Jan avg: 5.5 Feb avg: 6.3 Mar avg: 5.1 Apr avg: 6.7
Up and down, or 2 steps forward, one step back? I'll just have to wait and see how May goes.

| If I could just up and change my career path, what would I do? I ask this question alot. And of course, the truth is, that if I really wanted to, I probably could. But sometimes its easier to dream than to do. I often dream about becoming an english/math/geography teacher slash brewer/bartender slash urban designer slash world bike traveller. Can someone point me in the direction of realizing that life goal?

it
Experience that breathing From books and words

union"

Thanks Marlee for introducing me to
Rumi
There is usually a distinct disconnect between
my emotion and my beliefs. Spirituality and
feelings. But I'm starting to see connections.
I like to compartmentalize my life. Like
trying to keep items on a plate of food from touching each other, not
thinking about the fact that they all digest together in your
stomach. I'm trying to focus more on the stuff in my stomach,
and not dwell on the individual items on my plate. And in
doing so, hopefully I'll be able to more insightfully taste the flavors
of it all in my mouth.
That was quite an absurd
analogy. Eat it up. |

Your surroundings surround you
Always a context
I'm thinking about cancelling my cell phone. Our contract is up in
August, and I really love the idea of not having one. But I also feel
like I need to have one for work, for emergencies, etc. Can someone
talk some sense into (or out of) me? |
