RE: Traveler's life: A letter to people who call travelers lazy
@writingamigo - sometimes it's also just their projection ;)
Some of us worked too hard for some time and need a break - and sometimes its a long travel. One could be lucky if they could make work or bring their work with them and do it even on a trip. My hub and I have such a privilege, I don't think it's laziness - maybe .. more of - luck ;)
As for you being able to write out of it - isn't that also .. luck? And if you make it big out of doing what you love at the same time travelling - what's it called then? - Maybe you just have what it takes or that special something your jealous colleagues don't or have done it differently ;)
Thanks for comment @englishchrivy I agree with what you have said! Whatever it is - luck, good circumstances, privileges, or whatever else - I am super happy and flattered to have it.
However, I wouldn't say that being able to write out of it is luck. Most of the time is just hard work with little inspiration. Practice. Just like anything else in the world.
Yes, I might have better skills at writing, but someone else is good at singing, counting, socializing, and you just name it. I believe we all have that something valuable in us. That something, which gives us the power to improve. I will never say that traveling or writing is the only right path. Yes, it was the only right path for me one year ago. For someone else, the right path is climbing the ladders of the office career as they feel good out there.
However, what I am really sad to see is people wearing the wrong hat in their lives and doing nothing about it. And I agree that jealousy might find a way into those people mind. However, we all have that special something of our own, so there is no one to blame if it does not work out.
I just want to see people searching. I am glad that you and your hub have found what makes you guys happy!
@writingamigo practice indeed - love that
well, at least you found your passion - maybe? and have the courage to pursue it , most people don't specially when the people around them play the role of antagonists instead of support them and be happy for what they chose
The antagonists around can be a problem, yeah. But there are also a lot who support as well, you just have to pick the right people around you.
I really wish to think that I have found my passion. It looks like, so it fits for now!
@writingamigo - exactly
