People Unseen

Do you remember the face of the sales person/waiter/waitress of the last establishment you went into? Chances are you don't. I don't blame you, it works the same for me. What has society come to when one can have an exchange with somebody and totally forget the face of that person 2 seconds later?

It is approximately an hour and twenty minutes before I need to be at work. Still lazing in bed, unwilling to leave the comfort of. What will today be like?

At work I talk to people all day. Mostly meaningless conversations if you would classify an exchange lasting a minute as such. How are you? Can I help you find anything today? Lol. It really isn't that bad. But like I've said a million times before it really isn't that good ether.

The thing though, guys, is that I don't know what I'd rather be doing right now. If I quit work tomorrow, what will I do? Take off and travel more? Move back to the city? Both are not feasible. And with travelling, thought I'd never say this but maybe I need sometime away from that for a bit. Not because I'm sick of it but it feels like I should save it for a later date. Money is an issue here. And time too.

So if I were to follow my heart today, what would I do? Go back to Damascus, get a meaningful job and live there for a bit? Too vague. I remember the Career Counsellor saying that my ideas about work seem vague. What is it exactly that I want?
