I am full of wants and expectations this week; today is the day when I find out if the bid has been won and my work life will dramatically change. I have created a scenario where far too much is riding on a decision: one that I am completely powerless to influence. I am driving myself NUTS. I have not been sleeping well, it’s stupid: it’s just a bloody job! And yet I am so grateful for this situation. For the first time in a long while, I am really really excited about work. This process of putting myself up for this job has helped to concentrate my mind. I am ready to learn and grow and challenge myself. And I am so aware of the luxurious position I am in: to have these choices, to be able to dream this big.
It is no coincidence that this opportunity has presented itself while I am busy Unravelling. And then yesterday via GypsyGirlsGuide a little message from the universe. One that brings me back to earth and makes me think about what really, Really, REALLY matters. This photography project is so beautifully simple and yet so powerful. I have been absolutely blown away by gorgeous polaroids of strangers faces answering the question: what do you want to do before you die?
