Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
Exploring passion
Seeking to understand me
And what feeds my soul
One of my mentors challenged me: does my current work fill me with joy, is it what I imagine doing for years to come. I’ve never asked that of myself before. I’ve drifted from job to job. I’ve never had direction or mission in this part of my life.
I will fix that. It is time.
Writing is that joy giving thing. Now what? I’m unsure.
It’s exhilarating and terrifying.
The sun is now up
It’s time to change the world
You are important
There’s so much work to be done to make this world kinder, just and equitable.
I seek something greater
A life of energy, joy and passion
Owning my mission
I want a richer life than simply chasing empty ambition.
I now face forwards
Into tomorrow’s sunlight
Working together
A piece of my life’s mission: bring people together.
My mission in life
Make cool dreams reality
Defeat resistance
I had fun crafting this. Seems appropriate to have a haiku as a mission statement.
