Mick Jagger and I disagree, I believe you do get what you want...sometimes, you might not realize it...nor does it always come in the package one expects...but, come it does, if you open your eyes, and are willing to see things from a non typical point of view.
I've always wanted to travel...and not some at most 14 day trip where you're rushing to fit everything in between checking work emails. (don't lie America... You know being 100% unplugged only happens when the WiFi's out...and it makes you twitchy)
So when I was denied the chance to transfer into another role (that didn't report directly to the screaming meamie I once called boss) though sad to leave the remaining 99% of the company...leave I did.
With a tax return, severance package, a recently retired mom, who's very content to spend the one day inheritance together and a very desirable sublet location... The package that looked like being fired, turned into the gift of liberation, and the world travel I've always desired...and frankly, I just wasn't yet in the mood to get behind a desk again.
I did a bit of research, and discovered, Greece has the best climate in May...and isn't yet overrun by tourist season. Ticket booked through July...and no, I'm not yet sure where the universe and I will be creating my living wage when I return stateside...though I have complete faith, that package will show up wrapped in a cool little mystery with love from planet earth...when I'm ready to see it.
