I'm sitting here in our family home in the northern suburbs of Perth, Western Australia with less than three weeks to go before removalists arrive to pack up our belongings and ship them to the other side of Australia. My wife, two children, one chihuahua and myself will follow soon after.
I've been a commonwealth public servant for over twenty one years and I've recently won a promotion to a supervising position in Hobart, Tasmania. The career advancement itself may seem unremarkable but a more interesting story has been woven by the events and opportunities, both taken and missed, that have brought me to this point in my life. As I write about these influences over the next few posts you may agree that this move was the path I was destined to take, but will this obvious path lead to the things that I seek? I want a slower pace, more happiness and better health. I want to eat and drink with enjoyment and breath deeper than I've ever breathed before. I wan't my kids to grow up with nature and be happy with who they are and what they have.
I'm inviting you to come along on this journey to Little Earth as I seek the true meaning of living and whether it is in my destiny is to find it.
