Talking It Out

[prosodic]

Turns out, Lance was in a funk today too. So we talked for a long time today, trying to make each other feel better. I think we're both just bored and thinking about other paths we could've taken in life. But we chose what we chose, and we have to learn to live with those choices.

I told him that once he gets home, we should take a day and go into Seattle and explore downtown. I want him to see Pike Place Market. I want to take a ferry ride and go whale watching. There are so many things we can do to really appreciate being here. And I think we need to do those things. Because this really is a wonderful place and we are lucky to be here.

Anyway, I know talking to each other doesn't really help answer our big life questions that we have, but at least it helps to know what we can weather the storms together.

I really thought that you and Lance had got your life choices and direction very well sorted out. Lance is passing all his exams and moving up. You have moved to the place that you wanted and bought the house that you wanted. You had a great time traveling around Europe, but judging from your posts you were really looking forwards to leaving. You have a great husband (wife), etc, etc.

It all sounds pretty good to me.

Ah, but you are forgetting a key ingredient to life happiness: job fulfillment.

And I won't be going into any more detail than that on a public post.

Then I'll pick up the comment later (if I remember).

I will probably never post anything about it on here because it's kind of a private issue.
