I was speaking to a friend today about “drive”. I told her that as a young person, I was always driven to accomplish something great. I spent my life trying to climb the corporate ladder or becoming the super “domestic goddess” when I was raising my children. My drive now is in neutral and I am unsure how to handle it.
My children are grown and I speak to them maybe once a month or so. They are strong independent humans and do not need much from me. That is what parents want for their children.
My job is pretty lack luster. It pays well enough for me to meet my bills. I have plenty and am no longer in stuff collection mode. I have more than enough stuff. It is getting to the point in life for me to scale down so my children will not be burdened with the job when I leave this world.
My friend suggested that I find my passion and find a community of people that have the same passion. She said I will be surprised shat life will bring to me when this happens. Good Advice#Find my passion#Bloom where I am planted
Hello, my name is Dinky. This is a name given to me in my first marriage. It is my grandma name. A few other selected individuals address me as such. I am a onetime divorced, one-time widowed single woman trying to discover the real me. I will take you on my journey. Read if you are interested.
I feel that I am a hard knock educated person. I have been a working mother, a stay-at-home wife, a Christian, a caretaker, and a retired woman. I am always seeking wisdom on how to improve as a person and hopefully I can share as I learn more.
I have many interests. I enjoy cooking because I enjoy eating. I am not a great cook but am eager to try new recipes. I will share these with you. I have a degree in business management and a certification in food science. I have worked man years in the food manufacturing industry.
I also have a small farm. I have some cows, a donkey, some wild horses a bull and two dogs. I would like to explore more homesteading techniques and become self-sustained. Maybe we can learn together. I encourage your input and ideas.
I have spent many years learning how to make quilts. This is another hobby I would like to get back into. I am always up to learn new crafts and explore new projects.
I am really big on goal setting and finding ways to make my life simpler. I will take you through some of my ideas on that progress.
Lastly, but biggest on my list is that I am a Christian in continual growth mode. I will never be all that I should, and I will never judge people in regard to their own journey. I am always open for discussion on this topic.
If you find my talks interesting, feel free to follow me. If I say or write anything offensive feel free to call me out. I am up for improvement and self-growth.
Welcome to learning about me and helping me in my self-discovery.
