Is it ridiculous?

I haven’t posted for a while, partly because I have had a mental block about what to write. A lot of my friends see what I am doing as an extended summer holiday or a career break, just taking some time off. I must have explained things that way. But I am thinking about this as the beginning of a complete change in lifestyle: work, play, living space and personal attitude towards life.

I suppose I have been shy about explaining this to people because….I’m afraid it will sound ridiculous. I am probably also afraid of people asking why I am doing this, so making out that it’s a holiday means that people won’t ask too many questions. I am also afraid of what people might think if it doesn’t work out.

But if this blog is going to be any use, I should be more honest and forthright in it. And be prepared to sound a bit crazy in it. Perhaps people won’t think it is so ridiculous after all.

I am off down to Cornwall today for a fact-finding long weekend. Hopefully I will have opportunities to post as I toddle around. If not, I will jot down my thoughts and share them with you when I get back.

Stumble it!
