I don't believe

Yesterday, the snow was epic and the city of Seattle was almost shut down by it. Sam and I mostly laid around. Though eventually, we did go out and play.

The snow and Sam's mom being in town, has given me some time to think.

 Frankly, I'm having doubts about my Boat Building program. I don't think it will lead to a job.

Though in argument to this, I've been busy and happy, and this has been a rare thing in my adult life.

I have had plenty of opportunities to rot at home. I want to go out and do things. As a young person,  everyone told me a job was the path to fulfilling my potential, but I don't see it that way anymore. At some point, money can't do that much. None of us should be so materially impoverished that we are hungry, cold or sick without care...But face it, it is time to give money a true value. We just have to look at it and say .."I don't believe in you anymore"

Though despite all of this, I probably do still need a job. I'm not going to value myself based on what job I have.
