. . tricky question, uh ?
As usual, I will talk from my experience and as usual I will say that this point of view might end - everything changes, you know :)
So, when I moved for my new job to this city two and a half years ago, happy is not exactly the word that best describes how I felt ;) I actually did not want to move at all and the job I found was not exactly what we call passion.
You know when from the outside it looks all good but you are still not ok ?!
I started asking myself if I would EVER be happy with my life ? I realised that it was not really linked to WHAT I did . . so maybe it was the HOW ?! . . I continued my exploration.
Usually, in such a situation - and in this I am an e x p e r t ;) - I would have moved , changed or left. But this time, I consciously decided that I would try differently : I WOULD STAY. Slowly very slowly I started to look at things that actually were ok. Riding my bike to go to work, having a cool tchat with a colleague, realising the place I live is full of beauty. Without knowing that I was doing it I became more mindful and slowly slowly more thankful. I became more present to what is and was less looking for future rewards. Rather - and even if the situation was not perfect (when is it?!) - I started to be thankful for what I HAVE.
And . . this was the beginning of an amazing adventure ♡
So learning to put love in what I did eventually showed me the way to what I love. . or is it the other way round ? :)
