It's just sort of natural to begin, or end, a year and reflect on
one's life and situation so this is what I am doing for anyone who might
care.
Personally, it was a great year. I have the new
found love and support of a beautiful woman and that alone would have
made it great.
I have my great health and I am so grateful for
it that it might be hard to explain if people don't see so many others
with poor health problems or even death.
Professionally,
I can't complain too much even though with this still-struggling and
changing economy it can be difficult to navigate through challenges
quite often. However, I try to work very hard and 2016 is already
bearing the fruit of those labors.
Those who don't
know me so well often believe I am crazy. I hear it, see it, and even
sense it. Those who know me well know that everything they see and read
that I am doing are simply going to be some things I set out to do and
succeed at doing.
I'll start another project early in
2016 also and it will be another podcast. This one will be completely
different from the nonsensical one that I have been doing for nearly 5
years now (which some people thought would last a month or two.) It will
be one finally inspired by one particular live image that burned into
my memory recently.
The image was that of an older I
saw staring out of a window into an open field as I was turning around,
sort of lost, across from his house. Why this made me decide to leap
into action is probably just a result of a growing stack of such images,
I suppose. But, nonetheless, it lit the fuse.
I often
wonder about purpose in life and for what purpose I am here. Those who
are religious would have all sorts of different religious-related
answers for that, I am sure. But I'm not really one of those people so I
think differently.
What I don't want to do is be without some
purpose or use in life and in a much grander way than just in my
particular small realm.
I have the opportunity to help a
lot of people with hypnotherapy. During my time doing that work I have
come to realize just how many more people need help and not just help
with issues people already know they have.
As someone who has been clean and sober for over 22 years I can offer some guidance for those who are struggling
As
an entertainer who made a career change into this difficult field who
makes a living in it now despite many, many setbacks and lots of hard
work, I see so many others failing for very basic reasons. I can help
those people too.
Simply as someone who has been alive
for 54 years now and has accumulated many life experiences I have
things to offer those with less.
So I hope that 2016 will have great things in store for those close to me and those whom I hope to reach this year.
Happy New Year!
