Remember when life's toughest decision was what to make for your art project? Today, while the poem "Two Roads" by Robert Frost has been stuck in my head, I fashioned this art project to help focus my thoughts. Funny how a car emerged...and fitting in a way.
Perhaps the poem is so prominent because since Sunday, I have had two sort of, kind of, in a way, job offers. Both are from former colleagues and both will probably not materialize into anything more than good wishes. But for one moment, my heart did a pitter patter as I thought about doing something outside the house that is meaningful and exciting.
Moreover, I feel as though I am standing at a crossroads, with many new pathways before me. Using the poem as a meditation piece, I have been trying to figure out if I can figure out the future, or if suddenly my destiny will direct the way. Here is the rendition from YouTube that can be used as a meditation piece:
I have no answers for my future right now, but I am focusing on the present and hoping to figure out the best thing for our family, and for myself. Suddenly, I feel as though I am part of an exciting (well, more exciting) life. I may not be traveling the world at a whim anymore, but I am helping to shape our future via my children and keep finding interesting projects to work on for this time in my life. I have decided to look for a volunteer opportunity between now and the end of the 40 days of this project. I want to pay it forward and see what karma brings.
Too many days, I feel overwhelmed with the highway of life, this song helps me to embrace the journey.
