capturing this momentum

My favorite thing about working for myself is the way life and work blend seamlessly into one another. There is a satisfaction to be able to work and play on my own.

Yesterday, I took off most of the day to run errands and attend a retirement lunch. Found out about some opportunities with my ex-employer, so I will follow up with that organization.

Came home and worked. Phone calls with colleagues in preparation for next week's site walks. To visit almost fifty buildings in the next two weeks require some stamina, but it's mostly organization.

I worked up until my ride for dinner picked me up. Even better that my friend was delayed, so I could get out a few more emails.

Ready to work some more today. It will be interesting to observe whether self-employment will do away with most of the inefficiency I observed in corporations and larger organizations.

Next is networking and philanthropy. Life is exciting right now because I am finally growing in all the meaningful directions!

philanthropy

Starting to help out causes.

Finally understand why I am here. To be, to do, and to give.

More exciting adventures ahead. Now that I am never alone, I can do great things.

yay!

Two setups that I made are still going strong. One almost three months!

Another friend called to tell me that he got married...at City Hall, and their big celebration is forthcoming.

Want everyone to be happy. I know how to make myself happy, with or without company. At the same time, I understand the power of having a significant other, and it seems to mean so much to everyone around me.

Here's to finding love!

new job suits me

Started this post while sitting in my car at Treasure Island. I love planning because of the relationship with places.

Although I'm a people person, I appreciate spaces and their reflections about people.

Places are always what I can count on when I am on my own. Several life experiences have been independent, including now working for myself.

I must embrace this solitude and appreciate being on my own.

defining myself

Some friends have been cautioning me against throwing myself so completely in the latest man.

Why not?

I finally realized that not everyone can live without fear as me, especially in dating and love.

Taking risk is such a big part of my identity, and now that I am ever more spiritual, it's easy to take even bigger risks. I love that feeling of free falling because like a cat, I trust that I will have enough time and reflex to land firmly on my feet.

Rather than wasting time worrying or over-analyzing, I am completely focused on enjoying every present moment.

I don't know what's going to happen with this long-distance relationship. I am simply savoring every moment of connecting with the most beautiful person I have ever met...

flattered

Someone told me last night that I don't have any worries because I am detached.

That was the best compliment I have ever received.
