Tall Tales

Sometimes in order to tell a story I have to 'tell' a story. Not lies and untruths just all the details like, who said what and who was standing where. There have been times when my audience rushes me to the ending but it's so much more fun to get out the details then the punch line. Today as I shared stories with friends I lost lost track of time, it's such a good feeling.

I'm trying to figure out the next chapter in my life story these days. I'm toying with the idea of going back to school. It's never been on the list of maybe's for me - more like maybe NOT. I know I can do it, I could even do it well but I can't do it unless I'm excited. Finding a way to recapture the excitement that got me through the first go round is what is in the way.

My mission statement for life is to affect positive change in the world (and own a hotel). Is it possible to do both at the same time? Helping people vacation is after all a positive thing right? Maybe lawyer school? I like to write but I don't know if I'm cut out to be a novelist, short stories or blurbs on citysearch.com would be more my speed. I wonder who you have to sleep with to get a sweet gig like that?

Next year is the year to complete the 2009 plan for the 'next step'. Maybe it would help to create a list of things I want to do before I - well, I hestitate to say die. But, that's what I'm getting at.

Yeah that sounds like a good plan. It's better than a cheesy New Year's Resolution.
