I have made an important decision

fuzzy butt;948890 wrote: I've just thrown in my counselling course. ($5000) wasted . I decided I dont' want to sit and listen to druggies and beaten wives and criminals. I want to help on a realistic scale. Help those who really need it, that don't have other resources and the like.

I havent been this excited about a decision in sooooo many years. I've always just plodded along doing what was expected of me without looking into my true nature and gifts and ablilities. When I was a kid I wanted to be a missionary (okay stop laughing , that's not going to happen these days ) And then I look at my "favourites list" and it's full of counselling sites, permaculture sites, self suffiency sites, home made toy sites, and the list goes on......It's been under my nose all along. Great i hit 40 and suddenly know what I want to do with my life Just have to add to that list fitness sites and I'll be set.!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!!!

You know? I actually feel good about this . :driving:

So off to training and courses and prac. I have sooo many peeps helping me out with this .


A big decision to make but if it feel right then go with it.

May it be the best decision you ever made :-6

Training can be all over the place they call it WWoofing, and then courses on top of that. It's important to know things from a primative point of view so you can sustain yourself and others overseas in devasted areas.

an example of this

http://www.wwoof.com.au/about.html

And there is also what the Red Cross does. Sitting in an office collecting names and information so loved ones can find each other etc. The list goes on.


This is really impressive Fuzzy!

I am so happy for you and you will be perfect for that type of work fuzzy! I like Chezzie's idea of calling you "fit butt" also btw!

I would like to share, if you don't mind that you helped me so much in a serious time of need and I am ever so greatful for it, it brings tears to my eyes when I think about it tbh!! I know that you will be a great asset to any institution to help others, you have a heart of gold and really care about people!

I wish you only the best and sending cyber support your way!!!:-4:-4

Plus i've been told to attach myself to Rotary or the lions club etc. or any philandropic society to help me out. I had no idea there were so many different organisations that help out personally with AID workers. I'm gobsmacked!!!


I know this may be hard for you to believe, but this is the honest truth...just recently I've been having this strong feeling that I should go volunteer at the hospital or red cross, because I'm not able to find a job, I should still be doing something helpful....and then you are doing this....uncanny huh?

That would be great experience for you, you'd be great at voluteer work . And it's fun . .......DO IT DO IT DO IT



DOOOOooooooo IIIIT!!!!!:D


I probably will before too long....I might be getting a job that pays money soon though, but as the boys get older, I really would like to help people....unfortunately I've been obsessed with helping myself and the boys and I think that might be my problem!:(
