I've been thinking a lot lately. Mostly about the future and what I want to be when I grow up; two hard topics to contemplate considering my general lack of future knowledge. If I were able to know how one event would effect another and in turn effected myself, then I might be better able to make a decision and stick to it (in regards to what I want to be).
I watched a movie today called Timer. It's a sci-fi romance, featuring the actress from Buffy the Vampire Slayer who played Anya (Emma Caulfield). At the time when this movie takes place, most everyone has a timer. The timer is a devise which is attached to your wrist that will count down to the very day you meet your soul mate. On that day, when your eyes meet, the timer beeps and you just know.
I see the allure of such a devise. Not only do you know that an event will happen, you also know how many days until said event (unless, of course, your soul mate does not have a timer). I know this is a bit abstract, but I wish I could simplify my decision making process in choosing a profession so easily. I would just buy a devise, it would read some sort of scientific, hormony level...then poof! I would just know. All doubt erased.
I wonder if anyone would like to act as a timer for me? What is a career that you think would fit this artist and farmer?

You have access to such a device.
Hmmm, what a great question. And I wish I could "like" Lanny's answer.
I could see you doing so many things - nothing that's in a box though. I could see you having a hobby farm and giving tours to elementary school kids, letting them feed your goats and chickens. I could see you finding boutiques to sell your creations in. I could see you teaching writing classes for kids. I could see you designing stationary, wedding invites, and such. I could see you working at a sweet shop as the taffy girl. I could see you working in a flower shop, designing bouquets, making corsages, etc. I see you in a role like Meg Ryan's in You've Got Mail.
You're no 9-5 woman Kyo. And that's what is so utterly striking about you, so attractive about you, and why you're so easy to love. You've got a tender, sweet heart with a strong creative spirit. I can see why this career thing would be a huge question right now - your soul was designed to do something much more special, unique and intriguing than any of us can imagine.
Sorry I'm not a timer...but keep praying and searching - but above all, keep CREATING. I think somewhere in the midst of creating, you will stumble upon what you were born to do.
