Hmmm...
Okay. I'll do some more brainstorming and see what I come up with. But I think it would be rather difficult to find any kind of normal profession for me.
You see, I absolutely love exploring life, consciousness, and reality. I am a spiritual student. I enjoy helping others not because of the activity itself, but because it's just an artifact of who I am. I suppose it's just me expressing myself.
But if I get into this line of work, of helping others, I don't think I would be able to charge for it. Charging money to show people how to be happy and at peace within themselves...It just feels off somehow. It's like you're selling Source to someone, you're selling them what they already have and just don't know it yet. How can I charge someone money to show them what they already have?
I'm okay with selling my programming ability and time to someone. But selling someone the ability to have a better life experience...is something I am forever unwilling to do.
Sentient: I've met a few life coaches in my day. That would actually be a pretty good idea. I've forgotten about that profession. I'll look into it some more.
But, of course, I have the money issue, which I need to get over I suppose. I'll think about this some more.
Perhaps I've just placed myself into an impossible situation.
