February wasn't the happiest month.
Wait, that's not what I mean. The month itself brought me plenty of happiness, but as far as my happiness project goes, I was not super focused.
"Make Valentine's Day count for the women around me"...check.
"Love people"...half check. I loved people no problem, but did I live love out intentionally on a minute-to-minute basis? Not necessarily.
"Keep up with long-distance friendships"...no check. The best of intentions doesn't bring about results if they're not carried out. I think someone wrote a quote kinda like that once.
So am I writhing in self-guilt? Not really since loving and making long-distance calls is still available to me this month. I'm saying "there's grace for that." March's happiness goal is:
"Take a step toward my career...go to a conference, apply to a school, meet with a dean, etc."
In hoping to move toward a more career-type job in the near future, I've done a lot of dreaming. Being 22, done with college, and invested in a steady full-time-short-term (hehe) job means I am safe to dream. I could remain a nanny for a long time, but since I sense that it will not fulfill me forever, here is a list of the dreams I have dreamt for myself:
Culinary school
Supplement distribution
Marriage and family therapy
Life coaching
Spiritual direction
Nutrition
Writing
Crafting (as in full-time crafting...if this were a viable career option for me RIGHT NOW, I'd not be here typing)
Birth coaching
So I have my work cut out for me this month. I pray this pursuit proves hopeful and fun rather than taxing and dead-endish.
