Ideal Future- Plan A
My ideal future includes me being working in the hospital as a pediatric nurse practitioner; it’s always been my dream job. I will live in a really nice, warm cozy house with 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a decent living room, dining room, kitchen, family room, basement, attic, a big yard, garage and a nice decorative porch. I don't really know about marriage yet, but I'll be with a long time partner with two beautiful kids. In my ideal future, I see myself being financially stable meaning I'm not living paycheck to paycheck but I'm not “balling” out either. I'm still debating if I want to stay in America or move somewhere else like Canada. Hopefully, I will be still working with OSDPC, and traveling to Haiti in the summer time not only to give back but for my kids to get know their background and history. In my ideal future, I find inner peace and true happiness. All my hard work is rewarded, and so much more.
The twist
In life, we should always expect the unexpected. We should always know that nothing goes according to plan, and plans are going to change just like our future. A twist that may happen in the future that I plan is finding my dream guy and getting the opportunity to go to Africa for a year as a nurse. The twist would be that I would have to choose between my dream man and the opportunity I’ve always wanted. If I go to Africa I'll be doing so many amazing work, in the field that I love, I will be meeting all of these amazing people, but I will be giving up something I never thought I could find. If I stay I would probably be is that myself for giving up an amazing opportunity and deep down inside I wouldn't happen. The twisted plot is choosing between my heart and my passion.
Alternative- Plan B
I don’t end up with a Ph.D. in science, but instead I get a degree in psychology and I become a counselor in a high school and teach part at a college. Besides teaching, I work as an interpreter and travel around the world. I get to do all this amazing things and meet all these amazing people. In the summer, I spent a lot of time Europe, studying languages and culture. I live in a modern loft and I have a long time boyfriend that works in the entertainment industry. Even if it is not what I plan, I'm still very happy. “In whatever situation you're in, try to find happiness.”
Grace is…
Grace is awakening
I feel its presence
I understand what is coming
I appreciate all that is conspiring
I accepted my reality
And I remove all my illusion
Grace is connection
No words are needed
Just let yourself feel
Let the love within flows
Knowing that we connected
We are all one
Grave is faith
The thoughts of the things to come
The drive to keep going
To keep pushing for all that you want
To know that challenge lay ahead
And continue the fight
Grace is a flow
Something you can’t control
It’s our journey
Not such so much our destination
Grace is freedom
Grace is anything and everything………..
Douney,
ReplyDeleteAwesome post. I really like both of your A and B futures. Both seem alive with heart-centered work, opportunity, and travel. I like how you kept things specific about where you want to go and what jobs you'd like to have (maybe).
Your plan B future is very interesting. I like that you have a second, very professional plan... not just hoping to become lucky and win big on the lottery. Both of your future plans seem very realistic, very rewarding, and very possible.
Excellent work. The poem this week is vibrant. I think you did a great job of defining grace, in all its aspects: drive, faith, flow, "awakening". Very cool. Very true.
