One small email changed the course of my life
for now. Since my cookie shop closed
seven months ago, I have been devoting myself to my photography. I have been scouring the internet for
articles and videos to help me advance my skills. I have learned so much and have been applying
that knowledge to my photography. I eat
and breath photography pretty much 24/7.
That abruptly changed when Paul got an email
stating that his consulting job basically will come to an end. He still has his regular job which pays
the everyday bills, but we are in debt partly because of the cookie shop and need money to
pay off those bills. We also invested in
land that is basically worthless because the neighborhood went under. We are going to have to foreclose on the
property, take our house off of the market, sell the lot we are going to build
on, majorly change our eating out habits, but most life changing is me getting
a job.
During the course of the seven months, I
stared to see myself moving towards being a professional wildlife/nature
photographer. I would love to travel the
world taking pictures of lions in Africa to seals in the Artic. It was a dream I was focusing on which for
now is no longer. The passion I have for
photography will now be set to the side to hold a regular day job.
I have no idea what the Lord wants me to do
for a job. I know it will all work out,
but I cringe at the thought of doing something other than what I am passionate
about.
