I'm listening

Its been well over a month since I've had a new project come my way. During this time I've been scouring for work, job inquiries, but mainly just been researching, learning and listening. Unfortunately my experience and expertise means I'd have to seetle for a job far from meeting my qualifications; as well as being intimidating to most firms (where I have as much if not more experience and expertise then their art directors, CEO's, Presidents, Senior Designers, etc). I've worked myself into a corner. Rather than "cash in" and ignore my mission and purpose for working at home on my own -- to be an available father and husband which sacrifices financial stability but not at the cost of my family -- I'm doing all I can to keep afloat. My heart is still in this, though shifting mightily to photographer, I'm seeing where I really want to go, and where I really want to be. My wishes and dreams. Ultimately I know where I want to be (consulting, speaking, photographing) but have no map to follow. All your thoughts and prayers aregreatly appreciated (or even work, though I hate to sound like a whiner or beggar), but oddly enough I'm not worried. Times like these usually make me stop and listen, because more often than not something large is looming.
