Paths.

Camino

Paths are meant to lead you, they can also lead you astray, further away from your original destination. Perhaps you didn’t know where you were going, or why you were going there in the first place. I like to keep my aspirations grand, my goals clear. One thing I am trying to clear up is my desire, my intent. I am passionate about my trade, it has never lead me astray, my work is always representative of it’s context, which is all that is left. But getting caught up in the work can have you forget about the path, the ground can vanish from under your feet. When this happens, it can take some time to find another better path towards your destination. And so I seek the desire to assume charge of my own affairs, stop letting others make choices in my behalf. Seems like I’ve done this before, but never so clearly. It’s a process, a slow process of comprehension and projection, meanwhile doing as much work as I can handle on my own.

Which leads me to the next great step in my life. The name is so good, I don’t want to reveal it yet. But soon. I know however what I want it to be, which is the best thing to know. I also know I can take my time and act on my own decisions, that is the biggest relief. This new project and hopefully the best project I have undertaken is a web company, with multiple specific focus areas and objectives, nothing big, but ultimately something that is mine, where the goals are clear, the ideas are my own and work with professional dedicated people. I will also never give up on the possibility of forming a small T-Shirt/Poster shop once again, one I can use as a hobby, with none of the pressures of making it big.

Well. that’s enough for now. I wanted to give my readers (I think it went up to 2.8 readers. Yay!) the heads-up. Over the next few days I will be posting excerpts from an ongoing writing project titled “Life Vest Under Your Seat” a collection of short stories I want to finish and publish.
