Now here's a mission

Am thoroughly enjoying the podcasts in Superhero Life's Foolish project.  Much food for thought. 

I was writing, trying to, you know, respond to one of the podcasts, and I got all worked and wound up by ergh, trying to be precise and real and authentic about what I am really about..... And I walked to the post office, deep in thought.  Damn.  I do so many of these damn workbooks, e courses, workshops.....what do I really want? what are my core talents? what IS MY DAMN PURPOSE? calling, true north......

yada.  yada.  yada

And as I wrote and wrote, I turned myself around.  F*CK it.  It doesn't matter.  Its all just a ride.  An experiment.  I am just playing here.  Stop with the big it has to matter about everything weighty paralysing heaviness of it all. 

Its an experiment. 

yup.  I feel much better now.

i was reading an article about being happy this week and you might be surprised to learn that feeling that you know the secret to life/have a reason to live etc made very little difference to actual happiness. Whereas people who believe that life is a journey and who learn all of their lives are normally very happy.
And i find this to be very good news indeed!

I love that perspective? It sounds liberating, fun, adventurous and full of mystery too. Just love it!
