Happiness…

I was reading old diaries of mine. I keep one since the age of 12. I think it was near the end of 2003 when my thoughts and feelings got darker and darker. There were moments of joy, but I found it hard to fit into this world. Things got worse when I moved out of the house into my apartment at the end of 2003. I think that every entry was about me being confused about life, work etc… Of course I also tend to write down my thoughts more when it involves a stressful situation, and keeping an online journal also often prevented me from writing in my physical journal. But still. For over 10 years now I seem to struggle with the same things: a feeling of not belonging here, a need for freedom.

more ramblings this way )

I know the only right decision would be to quit this job and do something I love. I hope to be able to do just one day soon. (I still wish the idea of a basic income for all, of which you could live off without a job would become reality for all one day soon. It would make life so much easier for so many people and in the end would benefit so many things. For more info: http://www.globalincome.org/English/Global-Basic-Income.html)

Let me end this long post with a song, one of my favourite songs of all times:

Every inch of my body and soul tells me I should head into another direction with my life. Work is only annoying me these last couple of months and a lot I don't care about any more. Last Friday I visited the parents of a girl in my class. Was for a school project, but I ended up staying over for dinner and we had some intense talks about life and spirituality. I left at 9 in the evening and it was amazing. I love talking to people, guiding them on their path. Not just children, but also adults. It gives me energy. I did the children coach training last year, but it isn't what I want. I want to act pure on intuition, because I have loads of it. Then again, what do I want to do with it? Have my own practice? I don't want to have to deal with rules and paperworks anymore. I don't want to have to show other people what progress I made with something. That's something I learned: let me do my own fucking thing my own fucking way.

However...I need a steady income. I am a home owner (something I regret so much these days because it makes you dependable, especially in these times) I have to pay my bills. Quitting my job means no steady income whatsoever. Keeping my job for only a few days isn't an option either anymore. I'm done with being a teacher in this world. I don't want to have to deal with all that comes with it. And even when I teach for only a day, I still have to deal with everything else.

I feel like I'm at a crossroad and need to make decisions, but I have no idea which. And I find it scary to just jump into something without knowing what it will bring me. I have no faith whatsoever, but maybe I should start with writing down what the worst things are that could happen. A change is in order, that is for sure.

I wish life wasn't so complicated sometimes, or at least wouldn't feel so complicated. And I wish I had more faith and courage and not have fear hold me down all the fucking time.
