Buy your freedom
The reason you are working a 9–5 job is to buy your freedom. I have already discussed in a previous article why humans are so interested in freedom. It's important for you to understand that ultimately what you want out of your job is to get your freedom. As long as you don't earn while you sleep, you are constantly trying to buy that freedom. Definitely, you might love your job and what you do but after working the same thing for a decade or two, it gets tiring, especially when you are forced to show up every morning to ensure that things don't crash.

Sharing Circle
This year has been a hard one, probably the hardest one of my life so far. I have felt the saddest, the most lost, the most confused and have now settled on trying not to feel anything. I don’t talk as much and prefer to keep everything to myself. There is definite guilt because I have left friends and family behind in order to keep going. Not talking or sharing makes me feel better, as crazy as that sounds, it keeps me under control and still. I don’t know if what I’m doing is right or wrong but after losing myself for three months I’m too scared to try anything else. One thing I have been grateful to have is my full time job. When I’m at work I get to focus on something else for 8 hours and the conversations I have are pretty repetitive and comfortable for me. That was until yesterday.

THE MAN ON WHITE WHO DROVE A WHITE CAR
It was not too long ago that I met "The man on white who drove a white car". He looked good, about 6.2 ft tall, slim and dark. Quit a catch not 100% of the spec but hot enough to be called hot melanin, a chocolate temptation. You see this man, "The man on white who drove a white car", he has a very cute smile, the kind that brightens every heat of anger or sadness that the day might have built up in your mind. Yes, I know this because the day before I bumped into "The man on white who drove a white car" at Agura, I was in a place where a good old fellow of mine referred to as depression, it was a place where I get to discover the valley of shifting whispering sands.
