funny thing

The recession did a funny thing to me. Somewhere inside the internal gears of my clock changed rhythm, switched up and skipped a beat. The timing of the global meltdown coincided with the approach of bouncing baby boy number 4. i took stock and realized that i will never have enough money working a job and as a full-time working mom i had neither enough money nor time and felt that those precious moments were too often stolen by the demands of working for someone else. i accepted a truth that i had far too long tried to quiet in my mind...the truth that time was a far more precious commodity, too dear for the compromise. i still grapple with transforming my definition of success but i realized that my real passion in life was not pleasing clients but in harnessing my creative power and potential in positive life-changing endeavours both at home and abroad...The commitment to the purity of that pursuit is sure to be met with challenge, i have found in life anything worth doing is. i believe that my destiny is blessed that opportunity before me is limitless and i claim that, demand that and invite you to take that journey with me.
