What makes you itch?
Lately, I've been trying to figure it out what makes me itch.
This short video, full of Koyaaniqati-esque shots, narrated by Alan Watts has been all over the 'internet of inspiration' for a while now. Mr. Watt's distant voice, probably recorded years before I was born, has been bouncing around in my head for a few weeks.
It's not that I want to quit my job - as an HR professional in the nonprofit sector, I truly love my work, and the mission of my organization. And to a certain degree, money is important. However, when I get home, I am exhausted. Physically, mentally and often emotionally.
Is this how someone, "doing what they'd like to do, if money were no object," feels? Is this how I enjoy spending my life? I could think of a million things I'd like to do if money were no object, but the deeper question is, what do I really desire?
