What profession do you admire most and why?
Right, first things first , I’ve not written for over a week because I’ve been in Majorca. Not that anyone will have noticed, but you know… I like to announce my own comebacks like I’m Beyoncé dropping a surprise album.
Today’s WordPress daily prompt is: “What profession do you admire and why?”
Now, of course I’ve got all the respect in the world for the emergency services and the people who literally save lives. But my admiration isn’t really tied to the actual profession, it’s about the people who went after the thing they truly wanted.
I’m talking about the ones who said, “That’s what I want to do” and actually did it. The ones who slogged through years of training to get there. The ones who walked into their favourite shop and thought, I’d be happy working here, and made it happen.
I admire the doers. The people who didn’t just daydream about it on a Sunday night and then go back to a job that drained them (cough, cough) . They took the leap, however big or small.
Maybe that’s because I didn’t follow my own dream. I tell myself I live with no regrets, but if I’m honest… sometimes I’d give anything to go back and see what would’ve happened if I had.
But here we are , Majorca burn peeling, coffee in hand, tapping away at a blog post instead. And maybe that’s a little dream in itself 💕
