Today marks 6 months of unemployment. Tomorrow, I turn 47. Those two facts together are spawning questions about how much longer it will take to reach some personal goals, like doing a job I feel called to do.
Since around the year 2000, right about the start of summer, I was extremely frustrated with the job I had (which spanned from May 1, 1997 to November 21, 2002). I was worried about future things like saving enough money for college for Brian and Kelli, and advancing on to something that would give a bit more security (financial). But security also had to do with personal, spiritual, and emotional health. The struggles at work to overcome the constant barrage of unjust "under-valuing" of my Web skills and work product were working to create vast rifts between my self and my work, which resulted in increasing loss of energy or desire to be proactive about things I about which I would have been fanatical only a couple of years earlier.
The 3 years that have passed since then have probably been the source of much of the gray hair I now have. More in 47, now what?
