This year has been a roller coaster and it's almost over. Some of it good, some of it depressing. It's been crazy and depressing but there was joy in there somewhere.
So what happens next? Fix the life and make 2023 better?
At 65 and a half, this was not what I envisioned for this decade. Here we are and now its time to keep eyes forward and discover new territories. Before we go forward, let me say F*ck Covid. That was the start of the crazy depressing stuff.
Okay, now it's time to move forward with eyes to the sky.
So how to discover options? Evaluations. At 65 what skills do I have?
Computer
Office
Writing
Painting (Art)
Works well with Animals.
I look at this list and think what would be something I could do with joy?
Definitely, #3 and #5
The rest go from yay to eh.
So the most joy comes from writing stories. Novels, shorts and everything in between. I just like to spin some yarns and and go into that writing zone.
What is the writing zone?
It's a place most creative people know, but I think others get there too. If you have a job or activity you love, you've been there. Did you do one of your favorite things and before you realize it, the time has flown by and you feel like you're lifting your head out of a cloud? A cozy, warm and fuzzy cloud that blocks out that real world? That's your bliss, your joy.
Do what makes you happy.
As one of my favorite tiktok'ers says; Find your Joy!
I'm going to go look for mine now.
