However, for many years I plugged along doing network support and small business technology consulting while I gently watered and fertilized those aspects of my work that were more creative.

All this to say that I have steady work doing something I love. That some are lucky enough to live doing something dear to one’s heart is as good as it gets.

And yeah, no matter what, no matter how much I love what I’m doing, I still get squirrelly and sometimes find my home office a cubicle. There are still “white nights” now and then, and the occasional worry when a client takes forever to pay, but it’s worth it.

When it’s all said, and done, and when I’ve worried until I can’t worry anymore, I get back to what I’m [supposed] doing and I’m grateful I’m not doing anything else.
