Métier
métier means a trade, profession, occupation or activity that one is good at.
Over the past month or so, since completing my course, I’ve had ‘plenty of time’ to think about what I want to do with my life. Times when decisions, crossroads, transition and patience makes even more sense. Its also times like these when I can so easily fall into the cycle that everyone else goes through in ‘getting a job’. I ask questions like “Can I improve my resume?” “What’s the best way to write a cover letter?” “Am I cut out for the working field?” As per normal and a sensible point of view, I would need to see where my degree takes me and how I ‘fit into this system’, in other words to find my place.
I don’t believe in all this. I believe that I am meant for something BIGGER.
Is your occupation all there is to life? Maybe if I were to tell you that I aspire to be an acclaimed opera singer, you might even think I’m not qualified or demand a certificate.
Dive in and get started, u won’t know until you’ve spent real time figuring it out. Don’t think it’s wasted effort, I waited tables at hans cafe and forward a few years later I was designing a hans cafe. The point is not about me but that every experience builds another dimension of who can be. And you’ve got heaps of potential, and you can rest easy trusting His guiding hand over you.

I like that. Thanks for the words panda.
