		<description>Oh, Jackie "O",

Hehehe...we guys are going through the same things - you, me, anj, happy, aj, et. al. I'm just learning it's okay to have a sense of what you are passionate about, the people and things and activities you love.  I'm not as courageous or brave  in the planning and doing, but I know that I have to plan around those things, go for these single-mindedly (wry smile). It's cliche, but we really have to follow our hearts...no matter how LONG it takes us, no matter how many times we bewilder other people and they ask us what we really want in life. I’m learning to take my cue from myself, not from what others think I should be doing...I’m one stubborn girl, I admit (*big grin*).

Here's also a quote from a book I read (will have to do some more remembering exactly what THAT was ):

"You feel the powerful storm pulling at you in all directions, switching winds  that catch you off-guard. You feel torn apart. Yet these conflicts can be resolved by thinking things through and then choosing, even if later on it becomes obvious that the decision isn't working out. When we make a plan, we gain a feeling of being intensely alive. We become more aware of our self, our own deliberations, which is exhilarating. Again, the key thing is that you must take action. And when you believe in something, your choices will bear witness to that. Always listen to the questions stirring up inside you, and never seek absolute answers from others."

Happy journeying,
Pauie Ü
