'いのちの名前'

I really love 'Spirited Away' from bouncy soot balls to scary Yubaba to awkward No-face to waving goodbye to Haku. This song is the perfect compliment to green tea and tired eyes. Look at how my facials do not at all express how much I'm enjoying myself! The beats make instrumental sound great, I hear so many layers! & when there's no music, I can hear my heart beat so loudly. It's almost as though someone put two mini hearts into the massive ear pieces.

Today I feel really grateful. It's always occurred to me that finding a job that you love is beyond difficult, and yet I found mine last year. I really can't see myself ever quitting so  I have no idea what's going to happen. I feel like it's too easy (I mean, aren't we meant to go out and venture and try them all?! This is also the same advice mum gives for finding a future hubby.) but questioning my unlimited tolerance when at work, and how much I'm attached to it, I'm wondering if maybe I'll still be here 50 years from now. Usually a thought like that'd reduce my legs to jelly and my mind to an unwilling splatter of resistance, but there are none whatsoever & it's these instincts that we should judge by, right? I don't think there are many feelings in the world that are comparable to the overwhelming sensation you get when you watch a child take his first step, say his first word, or simply laugh because you did. I don't know if I can let go of this to work in some corporate environment with pencil skirts and paperwork that neither smiles nor say 'I love you' when you spend time with them.
