Wuhuuu! I am proud to announce: I QUIT MY JOB!!! Again! Am I crazy? Yes! Does it feel good? Yes! What are you gonna do now? What I love! Things can’t change if you don’t start making changes, right? Last monday I was on my way to work when all of a sudden a feeling came over me like “I really don’t wanna do this anymore”, it was like a heavy load pushing on my chest. I managed to stay on that job for 6 months, whoops… I’m just not made for that “normal life thing”! I feel trapped and caged, it restricts me and kills my creativity!
I remember the words that came to my mind when I was hiking last summer. As long as I feel trapped in a normal job, I just can’t be me…
KEEPING ME WILD
IS KEEPING ME STRONG
So what I’m gonna do is: Fly to Teneriffa on saturday, hike across the island and climb the Teide next week, come back and start having the guts to really live my life the way I want it. How I’m gonna make a living? Get more involved in our wilderness school, try to start giving courses in lightweight backpacking, let my creativity grow again (I have a tiny brand called “Helenmade” under which I make and sell hats, jewelry, felted stuff,… ), write songs,…
you amaze me

O o o… I still have a looong way to go!!! And I could continue the list: Dare to be vulnerable. Have a big heart. Smile to people. Choose the road less travelled. Take advice from your grandparents. Don’t be afraid to stand still sometimes. Wake up and see the world like as if everything is new. BE GRATEFUL! … … …
