Leap!

July 11, 2008

I’ve done it. I finally put in my letter.

I’ll be leaving my comfortable, full-time job at the end of August. It has been incredibly hard, given that I have been bombarded with counter offers, a salary raise and promises of more opportunities.

But I can’t take it anymore. While the opportunities were great, I need to be happy. And I want to be happy.

This is my leap of faith.

I’ll be pursuing my Masters actively. Part time lecturing will help me stay afloat in the meantime.

I need to trust that I will be ok. I need to know that it’s ok to feel insecure and worry about how I’ll manage.

Then again, I guess this is the Man Up There’s way of getting me to talk to him more. Joker.

    Hi I’m just hopping around wordpress…anyway! i believe in what you wrote because i believe that nothing can replace real happiness. after all, we do things (work, study, etc.) to assure that we are happy in the end…(“,)

    Thank you for dropping by! You’re the first blog hopper to leave a message.

    I always aspire to be the happiest I can be, even if it means having to give up something significant. It’s hard, but I’m still learning.
