Day 12 On Time- Reality Check

I can’t believe it...

Tomorrow I will make my very last ever 12 days commitment. Once I have done everything necessary to launch the last commitment all I will have to do is carry it out and ...Bam...it is done. Over. Kaput. I did it. Holy shit.

Thing is I am kinda sad. A huge part of what has brought me to this point disappears that day. I have never had a good answer to the question “What do you do for a living?”. At least this year I could say in good conscience that I was a writer, I do it for hours (nearly) every day. As for how it contributes to my “living“, it hasn’t brought me fame and fortune (yet) but it has brought so much unbelievable love into my life, makes it such a joy to live. I have reconnected with old friends, made so many new ones. There was also all those emails I got from readers that I never got around to replying to, I feel terrible about those, when I remember them, I just didn’t have enough time. This project took over my life, or perhaps the way to look at it is I managed to record one of the most fantastic years of my life...who knew? I have been humbled by the number of you who have stuck with me through the whole thing, and surprised by the number of times I get ”I read you blog“ from people I never would have imagined to wanna know. You have become my geeky internet family....AND I AM GOING TO MISS YOU WAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH....

Ya it really hit me today that this will end in just 12 more days...

Wow...

”What do you do for a living?“ is the cheeky question in 12 days journal #346

  1. I live my truth more and more every moment...I have two kids and I take full responsibility for how they get to the part where they are ready to take the responsibility.I question and analyze events and changes as to the benefits or complications towards the outcome of living, and I we I basically give my Love or give Love, straight up no mixin...Love for a living. I love my family me kids for the best living of life....

  2. I'm curious, though. Will you keep the blog and FB page "open" so that you can share with us the various tidbits that come back to you in the 12 days journals? I'm happy to let you off the hook from this journey, but honestly, I would LOVE to be able to read the comments that come back to you in the journals as they come in. Would you be willing to commit just a bit more time to sharing those with us?

    Mine has been written in, by myself and a few others, but I have not released it yet...I don't know why, but I am having trouble parting with it and feeling what is the best time and place to release it on to someone else. But I will do that soon...I am committing myself to keeping it in my shoulder bag until it speaks to me that it is time to give it wings. It will get back to you, I know, but not just yet...
