Keeping mum!

Well what do we have here, a keyboard, and a chance to not work and blog?
This is the life...
I have been hush hush for a while, but life as career woman, making lots of money and not seeing my kids, started looking a bit unappealing. (No, the fact that I had been a victim of unjust labor practices had NOTHING to do with it.)
So this is what I did...
Resigned, gave back my really nice mummy car, stopped shopping at woolworths, and now getting all ready to move on up to South Korea.
The most fun part is that my boys, Josh and Elijah, get to keep mum!
So far so good!
We get to play, lots of boy games, I know that one of these days a good girl day is going to be much needed!
Next week is week one of school, well home school, not actual school, we tried that it did not work:)

The reason why I blog today, is this.

I decided that having nothing, nothing is defined by what the world defines as temporary happiness, is the actual pursuit of happiness.
I have come to find that making a meal, running a bath for my boys, writing, dreaming, going on facebook, eating, blogging, is an enjoyment of time and not a waste of time!

In my pursuit of happiness, I pray that I find, Patience, so that she may give me company on this journey. I hope to find Joy, I hear she teaches us to appreciate life. I want to find God and let Him speak to me so that I WILL listen. I want the people that surround me to feel loved and celebrated by me. I want to learn respect. I want to learn freedom from the things that I feel I MUST have.

I am afraid for this pursuit, for I am not sure how I will emerge.

To muddy feet and peanut butter and jam sandwiches.
