I did this in a workshop. And this is what I found out about my world now...
The biggest continent includes my my students, my teaching and my family.
About the same size are conversations with friends and maybe, that 'spiritual' or 'philosophical' side of me now- reflecting about my dreams and aspirations and my purpose.
Followed by my degree or my studies.
Sadly, the smallest is my passion for music and arts.
And there I am, in a boat. Trying to make the connections, not exactly the fastest way to wherever.
I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
traveling, traveling, traveling
Looking for something, what can it be
Oh I hate you some, I hate you some
I love you some
I'm posting this because I want to remind myself of how I robbed myself of passion and life to cope with the demands of my work.
I'm posting this because this tells me where I am, and maybe its natural that my world now is like this, but I want to see it change.
I'm posting this because I want to prove myself that I can change and that I can live a balanced life.
I'm posting this because I want to see my world expand and grow without forgetting who I am.
I'm posting this to remind me to play the drums again.
And I'm posting this to remind me that I had dreams that I can pursue, despite.
I say "do it"! It's never too late...just give it time. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nikki! Yeah, sana...it's not just those of one those days that we have. It's important for us to really know our passion and grab it. Whatever it is.
