Todayness…

Hello Everyone. I hope this entry finds you well and moving in a positive direction here on Earth. Haha. Here on Earth. That is a funny thought. Funny because I feel like I am so many times caught up in thinking about what is right for me, that I give little thought to what is happening around me on this planet.

Maybe there’s a lesson there for me. In fact, maybe if I would just get out of my head and show up for someone, something good would come along. Hm. There’s a thought.

In fact, most of what I’ve been caught up in in recent years could be said to come down to me trying to figure out what is right for me. Perhaps I have spent too much time thinking along those lines.

Well, today I find myself in an interesting spot. I’m healthy and I want to help others. Amen. How do I want to do that? Is it music, art, getting a job, or all of these things? Amen.

My feeling is this, I should do what feels right. In recent years, grappling with different dreams and thoughts of the future, I have still done what feels right in the moment, although I can say I had a lot to think about on top of it all.

Today, I do what feels right when it feels right. So, what feels right to me today?

I will be asking myself that question everyday for the rets of my life, most likely.

But, today, what feels right?

Well, most recently I sent an email to an organization out of state that works with homeless people. You see, I felt a call to help them, too. So, I emailed this organization. They have yet to get back in touch with me, but maybe something will come. Maybe, maybe not. We’ll see.

If that doesn’t work out? What will I do? Amen.

Should I just get a job and start working again for someone? Is this the next step for me? I would love to be out on my own, out from under my parents’ roof and into the world. Amen. Maybe I will look into working for someone again.

Or, do I want to continue pursuing the work I have been doing? It hasn’t been very lucrative, but maybe there’s something I could gain form working for myself. Amen. Maybe staying true to myself will have rewards in the future. I mean, I feel fine today, what if I continued to chip away at music and art? Maybe a break will come along and something will “click-in” and this lifestyle will be more profitable financially. Maybe. In this moment, I am leaning this way. Why? Because it does involve staying true to self and finding my own way. Why is this a good thing for me? Because I will stay true to self and be able to teach others the same thing in the future.

Maybe I will come up with a business plan that will be of some success. I have had many thoughts along this line. I play music, teach music, create art; but, I also have a knack for writing and helping others. One idea I had a while back was to start a magazine. It would be an arts and culture magazine where I would have the chance to interview the featured artists and write down their thoughts about art and culture in a magazine format. Maybe this will be what I do to earn some more financial stability. Sound fun. Why not?

Anyway, what are you doing today along these lines of helping yourself and others?

How do we help others? Is there a set path to doing this?

Who knows?

Have a blessed day.

Love,

Travis
