Eightfold Path

October 24, 2005 - 11:05am

I never thought I'd be doing what I'm doing right now. I'm at work in my underwear, pillow marks on my face and am eating breakfast while posting a blog entry. Yup. I'm a work-at-home freelancer now.

There's nothing about my university job I didn't like. My peers were great to work with and had a real collaborative spirit. I had a kick-ass office that allowed my inner-introvert to hide and crank out Drupal code. And of course the job security and benefits would make any family man sleep soundly at night. So why the job change?

Last weekend Cori and I jumped in the car and saw our friend Stuart once again rock the inner chambers of the Omaha Healing Arts Center. If you've never seen Stuart play, besides performing he'll purposefully and obviously try to connect with you during the show. He doesn't stare up at the ceiling or close his eyes when he plays. He looks at the audience. He looks at you.

During the performance all I could think about was here's a dude who's living the way he wants to live: intentionally and aligned with the Bodhisattva vows. It blows me away when I think of the courage it takes to sometimes perform in a bar full of drunk people and sing songs of mysticism and love. That's some serious Buddha nuts.

Which leads me back to my resignation from the university. Sure my job has the tangible perks but I want to be closer to the Mystery. I want my heart to be as happy as the rest of me was at the day job.

So, here I go. Into less comfortable territory but with more conviction then I've had before. Let's see what unfolds, shall we?

Nothing beats ...

being in algnment with your heart, following it, and facing the challenges that come from being self-employed. (Well, I'm sure a *lot* of things beat that: Being present at the birth of my 3 kids for example, but you know what I mean.)

And certainly one cannot expect Sohbet Odalari Sohbet this new modern leadership to come from the remnants of the old failed order that still controls the all too comfortable offices of the modern GOP and Chat Odalari conservative movement. Rather, look hard at those governors on display Chat last week in Miami for clues to the future of America's center-right. But as able as those governors are - Kamerali Chat , Kamerali Sohbet , limewire indir , Palin - one did not see an obvious President there, someone ready to take on Obama in 2012, and lead their Party from a deep and dark wilderness. Interesting folks, but no FDR, no Reagan, no Clinton, no Obama. Despite their claims, the GOP farm team seems awfully thin now, Sohbet at least for the short term.
