Good Morning!

Today I’m writing from my parent’s home as I went to visit and cook for them for the Thanksgiving holiday. I enjoyed the actual cooking part and like spending time with them but it can be a bit overwhelming.

Today I’m going to take a little time to get out and do some holiday gift shopping through the local thrift scene while my Dad watches golf. There’s a couple interesting spots out here, particularly a resale center where a lot of different local people sell a variety of cool stuff. Last time I bought myself a vintage floral piggy bank. I used to run a flea market booth with my Mom when I was little and I’d see them there sometimes and always wanted one but never got one back then.

I’ve been feeling a little lost lately and I’m thinking it might be time for me to work on finding a bit more direction again. Not too long ago I graduated a religious based PhD program. It was a fantastic experience and I was able to do it on my own time and at whatever speed I could make work for myself. I’m thinking I would like to continue taking classes in something else that will help me gear my thinking towards more productive means.

Although I don’t have the financial means to go to a traditional college (or pay back loans in the future) I may pursue another philosophy degree or take some free courses offered through the larger universities to see if anything sparks a fire with me. If anyone has some suggestions, please let me know! I’m always wanting to learn more and am not particularly inclined to say no to any form of learning.

Stay curious!
