Ride of Your Life

by Confuddled @ 2008-03-20 - 16:12:36

I do love Tylluanpenry's blogs as there seems to be a lot of synchronicity lately between what's been going on in my head and what she writes. Yesterday was a really positive day for me. I can best describe the feeling as a warm smile radiating out from every part of my body/being. Whatever I looked at and saw, I saw beauty, joy and it all made me feel like smiling even more! :) At the moment I definately feel like I'm coming to an end of a cycle and about to start a new one. One that is a lot more positive and abundant. I see change as something we all have to go through and we definately shouldn't fear it.

Whilst on the train to work, a song came on my ipod by John Gregory called "Ride of your life" and the words are both beautiful and inspiring. It's about making the most of life. Dreams are all good and well, but you need to reach out to them and make them happen, otherwise they don't get you very far. It is so easy to get into the rut of daily life, to see it as a grind, full of hassle. I know it's not easy, but I resolved that everytime I face hassle, problems, irritations, etc I am going to turn it into a positive. I guess fundementally, part of the reason we are on this earth is to learn and grow.

Today I've already had a lesson! Moonwoman suggested that I think about the job I want, to express it through pictures and each day look at the image and repeat what it is I'm looking for. (That's a summary of what she said, but you get the picture) Well, I took her advise and I've been doing it since the last new moon. Today I went for an interview and they ticked all the boxes. Yahoo! I hear you shout! Well....one thing I didn't make mention was what length of job I'm looking for (interim, perm). I don't mind either however to give up a permanent job for an interim role, the period really needs to be 6months or longer. Living by myself, paying rent and debts, it's too much of a risk to take anything less. Well, my "perfect" job is only offered for a max of 3 months!!!! Don't know whether to laugh or cry.So, I got what I "asked" for, except I forgot to specify one crucial element. My picture is amended and here's hoping......

Anyway, I'm ending this blog with "Ride of your life" by John Gregory. The song has been put to some clips from Narnia which I think just adds to the beauty. Remember life is a ride, enjoy it!!!

Like the philosophy here - similar to my own that I'm blogging in my own corner of this site :)

Congrats on getting the job! Sorry that you do not feel able to take a risk with it, i can understand that! Is it really out of the question - the risk might be worth it in the end? Could it lead on to something else or is there a chance of the period being extended?

Great song - it makes me feel all excited inside!So true - "don't let it slip right through your hands".

If there was any hint of an extention or it leading onto something I would have taken the risk. The person was very honest with me (which I appreciate). It would be for a maximum of 3 months and that would really be it. I feel if I took it, as soon as I started I'd have to be looking for the next job. Financially I cannot afford to be out of work even for a short period of time.

Glad you liked the song! :)

i'm convinced we're all slaves of the moon.
i invariably feel full of the joys at every new moon, and wax and wane depending on the moon phases.
i enjoyed reading this.
and i'm happy you're happy!

I know exactly how you feel. It is frustrating, but something will come up.
