My Calling

Everybody, at some point of their life or another are faced with the question of "what is my calling in life?" Is this what or why I came into the world for.... of course you need to have the luxury of circumstances to indulge in such questions.

So, it is not surprising that as I near my 30ish crisis ( I am still a year away though, so not THAT old already :) ), I start questioning myself about - what am I doing now, is this what I was meant to do, am I happy doing this..... and though there are never going to be answers to that, I suddenly realize there are a lot of things I am not doing. I am not learning french or for that matter a new language, I am not volunteering anywhere, I am not reading at the rate I would like.


If you have read between the lines, I am sure you would have guessed that all this is arising from some dis-satisfaction with my job. Basically right now, there are 2 spheres in my life, my work and my home. And I have seen others successfully disassociate their home lives from their work life, and possibly due to my immaturity I have not been able to do that. I always carry my work problems home and make a mess and tangle of my home life. Well, everybody introspects at some time, and I guess my time has come. I feel there is some other calling in my life which I have not listened to closely enough. ....... we'll see where it leads me.
