I can relate to the feelings and situations you describe.<br /><br />I have often wished (always) to be one of those people who have the midas touch (if they are really out there) who can try any venture and it becomes successful - bringing financial security and creative freedom. What I got was a long series of sacrifices and difficult decisions - and many times of self-doubt and disappointment. <br /><br />That being said. I have also spent a lot of time reframing my experiences and seeing them from different perspectives. <br /><br />These experiences happened because of my searching, trying, experimenting, and most of all searching - not settling for the status quo (giving up). You seem to have a similar quest - of not giving up and not being afraid to change what isn't working and isn't quite right for you.<br /><br />I believe that regardless of the outcome of our decisions (maybe we won't become rich and famous) that our searching and willingness to continue to take risks will be our reward, and the self-awareness and happiness (when we stop comparing ourselves to everyone else). It is most important to follow your heart.<br /><br />I applaud your decisions and wish you well in this leg of your journey!Anne Tyler Lordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16909141266966569378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850351730536588690.post-26498682501773812972010-05-13T22:06:28.369-07:002010-05-13T22:06:28.369-07:00Jen:

And your insight into your motives for moving from LA to Sonoma and now to East Bay ... I'm really happy for you. <br /><br />I'll write more in an email.<br /><br />KarenMadabiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00507906538843636413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4850351730536588690.post-22330523392680015542010-05-13T17:43:18.380-07:002010-05-13T17:43:18.380-07:00Oh, I so relate to you Jem!

It's not as if my teaching gigs were enough to sustain me, so every once in a while (that is, frequently) I get desperate and just want out. <br /><br />I'm glad that you moved to a place you feel comfortable and attracted to, and I'm sure all will flow better and the muse will smile upon you once again. :)<br /><br />Hey, don't be bothered about the rejection thing! Everyone gets those, so we must keep going.Marihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08570428969140414779noreply@blogger.com
