Not so much time?

Who understands people? I've got the job I was praying and waiting for. From the start, I knew that the travel time would be extended. I accepted it because I knew this was the job the Lord had for me. Now, I wonder if taking the job in the first place was a good idea.


Excited

I was excited because I finally got a job in my field, it wasn't what I wanted, but it was an opportunity to get started. I knew getting to work would be a long journey, but I was happy. They promised that within one or two months they would give a total travel allowance, but they still need to. After waiting for months, I started to get impatient. I was paying from my monthly wages to get to work; they didn't care enough to give us business cards to travel with. Between feeling that my life became work, sleep, and paying a significant amount on public transport, I wasn't as excited anymore at work.


Not so much time

A day has 24 hours, 14 hours a day is for work ( since I woke up, get dressed up to get to work, and come back home), and 8 hours of sleep. I only have 2 hours left, one for cooking, and the last for me. Work became a burden. I'm at work the whole day and don't have time for myself, and they find it acceptable to do things on Fridays after work. Work just became my life, which I do not want it to be. I plan to use any time I can to do something productive, like writing my blog on the train (like this one), sketches, and reading books. So the only things left to do are things I can only do at home, such as playing guitar, singing, sewing, watercolor, etc.


I plan to do as much as possible toward my goals this year. Even though I don't enjoy the long traveling time, I want to make the best out of it by doing things that can quickly be done on the train. It didn't work out yet, but I'm working on it to get a structure to make the best of the little time I have left a day.


Be blessed, and stay blessed!
