There are a lot of things in my mind. Mostly about what to do....about my life, the future, things that I want to do, but cant seem to start. I'm getting old and until now I haven't yet established myself in this world. I guess I wont be able to. Afterall I'm just a pilgrim here. I cant understand what my mind wants. I get obsessed with every new and interesting idea. I remember the time when I was obsessed with mushrooms...I wanted to grow my own mushrooms, but I didn't. Then I was obsessed with knife making. I was able to maintain my interest in knives up until now. I still make a few. Then I realised I cant really make a living out of being a knife maker. I was also obsessed with 3 wheelers, but of course I couldn't make one. It was a far fetched dream. I'm still interested in mountaineering. Making my own gear was also an obsession, but I put it on hold for more important things. Making my own gear will follow. I still do research every now and then and I still plan on becoming a minimalist.
Right now I am interested in barefoot running and was thinking of making my own huaraches - Mexican style sandals with very thin soles. I figured, hey! maybe I can make money out of this here in the Philippines. Oh well, then again maybe not. If I could train in huaraches, maybe I could mountaineer with it. Barefoot mountaineering. Sounds cool. I think its a great idea. Only problem now is how to sell it. "The benefits of being barefoot." Then I could get in touch with the owner of invisibleshoe then we can maybe start a deal where I can retail his products here in the country. Sounds very nice, but I don't have a financial backer. oh well, another idea on hold until someone goes ahead with it and I end up envying them because they made a lot of money out of it. sheesh!
I don't want to be an employee all my life. I want to start a lucrative business and take care of my family personally. Live a simple life where all members of the family are happy. I wonder when....don't know.
