Phd. in Purpose

I started a thing a few months back. I was looking for something.

Purpose was part of it.

At some level, don’t we all ponder our purpose?

I ended up enrolling in college. Again. A BS program for Emergency Management. All online. Pretty easy stuff. Pay the man, do the time and work, get a diploma, go into the world and make money. Simple.

But, no. It isn’t. I finished the first two classes..Critical Thinking and Intro to Emergency Management. They were…basic. Jump through the hoops. I was left with an emptiness and disappointment. And I may have gotten and attitude.

Yep. Attitude. First, I don’t know how in blazes you can make something like emergency management take 4 years to teach. And NONE of it is hands-on or clinical. Sinful. Academia is killing the blue-collar of America; the foundation of our greatness. But that’s enough attitude, lol.

I’m currently just past mid-way on two more classes and I’ve decided to NOT enroll further. I originally thought this may be a new direction I would take after I retire from my bill-paying job in a few years. After sticking my head into the arena, I think I’ll go a different directions.

First, I don’t really want to start a new career in that field. Again, purpose.

Secondly, I’ll have about 30 years in the career I’m in now, and frankly, I want to retire and only do what I want. I’m thinking maybe the 20-30 hr per week at the local hardware store and when I’m not there earning play money, I’ll do this.

Yes. This.

Purpose.

I really enjoy sharing with anyone willing to waste time reading my drivel.

Venting. Teaching. Sharing. Honoring.

So I’ll finish the two classes I’m enrolled in and with your support, I’ll start writing more. And I’ll get back to the podcasts, too. Because I want to do something that has purpose and the little feedback I’ve gotten indicates this has purpose.
