    It’s scary, not knowing what you want. And it’s scarier, knowing what you want but having no courage to go after it even when you are living the regret every day. I wonder who was she… I wonder where did she go.. I admire her.. I miss her, even when what I have now, what I am now might have been everything she would’ve ever wanted. But she had something that’s long dead in me – the courage to dream.

    I guess this is how I want to introduce myself: I am a wanderer, I am an explorer of life, I am curious and I will not wait any longer for opportunities to come. I am an opportunity myself and I don’t need to sit and wait and wish. I will lead myself in the right direction on a journey from which I don’t know if it’s ever going to end.

    As an adult, I’m happy I had the hands-off, learn-to-entertain-yourself childhood I did. We weren’t always technological Luddites. We still watched cartoons and played shitty Flash games, but we weren’t pawned off or pushed in front of a screen by the adults. They didn’t plan out every second of our day, to make sure we were kept busy or productive. If we were bored, we were responsible for figuring out what to do ourselves.

    As some of you might have noticed, I have been “taking a break” for a few days. I guess I needed some “time off”.

    I didn’t simply just sit on the porch, put my feet up, sip on a long drink, whatever.

    Instead, I decided to switch it up a bit and got a little more involved with the back end tech of the internet. Unlike in real life, dealing with bits and pieces of computer technology can seem quite challenging without any prospect of rewards in sight … until it works!

    So I indeed did manage to work it out and after I jiggled the wires and flipped the switches and wiggled the knobs and shook the handles and whatnot, Wants.Blog has now become a founding member of PHLAT.net!

    PHLAT.net is (IMHO) a new and improved approach to the WWW … and one Wants.Blog readers should (I feel) definitely check out.

    I do not have great expectations, though. I expect only a very adventurous few people will even venture out onto the site — which is situated in a rather remote, uncharted territory. All kidding aside, PHLAT.net — as well as most PHLAT.net network sites — do not use data encryption … and therefore also do not use data encryption certificates … which is completely no problem because these sites do not collect any sensitive data. Companies like Google (and most other “Silicon Valley” upstarts), which collect TONS of data about their users DO NOT LIKE anything without data collection and so such companies are VERY BIG about campaigning against anything which doesn’t collect data about users. This is why many Internet browsers present warning messages whenever a site does not use data encryption certificates — because there is a huge mob of 800-pound gorillas breathing down their necks to do so. I will write another article about this problem (on another site, and I will be sure to post a pingback link here) … in a few days or maybe a couple weeks. I wrote this here and now mainly as a WARNING about the possible WARNING messages.

    If you want to know more about PHLAT.net, you can also visit the PHLAT.news.blog (proudly hosted @ WordPress 😉 ) … and read all about how Wants.Blog is now supporting this project (in “Founding members of PHLAT.net (network) — Unite!“) … you could even interact, ask questions, get answers and all sorts of fun stuff like that! (but please don’t let me distract you in case you are also busy vacationing 😀 )

    There were a lot of factors that went into my decision to leave, but the biggest one by far was the fact that I just wasn’t happy. I was absolutely miserable everyday. And for some people they can do a job that they don’t like and be totally okay with showing up everyday. I am not one of those people. I want to be happy. I think I can be happy. And this job was the only thing that was really holding me back from happiness. So I decided it would be best to leave and do something else instead of continuing to give all of myself to something I really wasn’t interested in doing.

    I didn’t have any study tours this Wednesday, so I decided to have a solo exploration day. In the morning, I walked to Church of our Savior, where I got to climb the spire and see a beautiful view of the surrounding area. It was a little scary getting up there, as Fall comes with a lot of wind in Copenhagen, but the view was absolutely worth it. Afterward, I headed to a part of Copenhagen that I haven’t been to and walked around for a bit.

    It’s slowly occurring to me that it may take a while to recharge fully. After 22 years of serving others, especially after this past year and a half, it’s time for me to take care of myself. I keep reminding myself that I need a break.

    I fear that I’ll never find that soulmate and have another family. I’ve always gravitated toward people who have maternal traits or who possess a comforting and guiding trait. I fear to never allow someone in my life who would see that I am full of love and I can give back. I fear that my past limits my future. I fear that I cannot be transparent about the obstacles in my life that have shaped who I am today. I fear that I will not have an impact on people. I fear that I will never want to show love and accept love because of simply it not working out. I fear having expectations because I have continuously been dissapointed. I wonder if hope and prayer is just this false illusion that comforts us in the moments of despair and hopelessness. I’ve always referred to myself as a meandering lost soul. I continue to search for what my passion and drive is, but not certain of how to apply it to make me successful.
