I don’t want to change the world, I’m not looking for …
…new something…
I’m feeling listless and a bit fed up. Unsure where my heart is and my passions lie. Not in the love-life area of life (muchos passion there), you understand, more the bread-winning part of life.
All suggestions gratefully received.

Sorry mate - I feel like that all the time. Always have.

It seems to me that you have a very good way with words - why not write a book - something like “harry Potter” with an allotment twist?

It’s February. Everyone feels like that. In a few weeks’ time when the days are noticeably lighter and the sun is warmer and all the spring flowers come into bloom you’ll feel like a different Pumpkin, I promise.

These feelings are cyclical - in fact, last Nov but one you were feeling down about your job: http://allotment.humanlint.com.....-for-help/
Take heart in your movement from then to now and remember, the Universe can only go so fast

I was feeling just the same a short time ago. These feelings come and go, but good things always happen at some point. And like Mel says above, Spring’s just around the corner! And you can write well, maybe the idea of writing a book is a good one…

Start off thinking small and build on it. Small changes which tweek and tone what you do.
Also you may have alcohol induced melancholy from your weekend away.
And if you have been with friends who YOU consider to be doing better, are more diverse and seem happier don’t you believe it! You have an allotment, alot of them cannot boast that now can they? Oh and your virtual family of course!!!!
Think of what you have got rather than that which you have not (bloody hell thats a bit profound!) The book sounds a good idea.

Hi all,
Many thanks for the kind and encouraging words.
I wrote this post having forgotten the first commandment of blogging - “Thou shalt not blog while tipsy” and I gave in to feeling sorry for myself (more usually I start to dance and sing when I’ve had a drink or two). When I got up yesterday I had rather hoped that no-one had spotted it so I could delete the post, but by then there were already two comments.
Thanks for your thoughts. I’ll take the writing idea under advisement given that part of what I’m struggling with at the moment is how much I have to write for work. It’s a nice sunny day today which feels better already.

It’s an important lesson for us all - never drink and blog.
