Gave myself a week to think about what I want to do with my life and i decided … volunteer

I am at a prefect stage in life:
– financial stability meaning some savings
– pumpkin has a stable career
– we don’t have kids
– I am 32, not young enough that I do stupid things, not too old that I have lotsa responsibilities and I am willing to take risk.

I have been working for nearly 12 years, all these time for money and stability in life. Should I start doing things for others? I am not crazy or brave enough to quit my current job and do volunteer full time.. so my short term plan… why not go for short trips, mission trips. Maybe a week ? it might be what I need at this stage..

I felt that I am an appreciative person but I seem to forget how fortunate I am. Taking work for granted, holidays, good life.. all for granted.

As for long term plan.. I thought of working for non-profit organisations. I did a quick goggle search and found lotsa jobs available.

It is a little scary… I used to know what to expect year in year out, but now, nope. Who know where I will be next year. Its scary, fun and exciting !
