Follow Your Dreams

Yesterday we had a mini reunion with our primary school friends. Those we knew during out 'hingusan' years, our younger days when we don't even know how to clean our own snots.

Anyway, a particular friend named M.. he quit his job in systems/ networking to become a lorry driver. Why? Because he had always wanted to do that. He quit his job, took a lorry driver's license and became what he had always wanted to be since he was a child.

Things worked out for him in a way. His pay covered the household expenses, and he can afford to have his wife quit her job. Now she stays home & looks after their 3 children.

He told his mother & family members about the job change one year later. Almost everybody flipped, despite the fact that he is now earning for the family and not expecting any family handouts. The good news is though, now his parents have fully digested and fathomed the reasons & he is now welcome at home for the holidays.

As for me, I haven't found that fire yet. Honestly my epiphany will probably be a mild tame one, as I am that sort of person. Just riding the small waves & letting things flow for a little while more. Love you my darlin'!
