VOCATIONS

Have you chosen your vocation in life? Are you happy in your chosen vocation? Are you in the wrong vocation?

How to find your true calling in life? Ask yourself what is it that you do or dream of every day that makes you forget to eat, forget to sleep or forget to go to the restroom? That is your calling. Discover this and make it your vocation, and you’ll never have to work another day in your life. Example: Right now at age 89 I have found my true calling; writing essays and short stories,. I get so involved in my writing that I forget to do those necessary duties. .I’ve also had a very happy and successful career as an outside salesman ; as well as with all my interests in playing country music, songwriting, golf, fishing, hiking and camping.. I loved hiking, camping, fly-fishing and communing with nature so much that I spent my annual two-week vacation every year doing just that. (and my marriage lasted 58 years) . How was that possible?

By the way I forgot to include the lyrics to my song >With Y our Head On His Shoulder>in my last blogg.so here it is::

With your head on his shoulder, You’ll just waste the night a-way, While your heart grows ever colder, And our love just goes astray—–Should pretend I didn’t see you here, Dancing with that other guy. Then I wouldn’t have to hide my head, Or the tear that wants to cry.—–Even when I close my tear-dimmed eyes, A vivid picture still I see,—-With your head upon his shoulder, You just go on hurting me.—-(music turn-a-round) Second verse: Holding hands beneath the ta-a-a-ble, In the soft white candle glow,…..Saying all those little love things,….Same old things we use to know,…Now your face is slowly turning,….And I wonder could it be?,….Yes, the same two lips I kissed before,…… Or, are my eyes tricking me,….,,,,Seems like every time it happens,,,,,That vivid picture still I see,….WITH YOUR HEAD UPON HIS SHOULDER,…You just go on hurting me……

My next blogg will be HOW I QUIT SMOKING …..cold turkey!!
