What is your profession?

is really hard to tell – if you have worked as xy in the past and are now looking for something else (I had a talk about it with Inko-Tariah). And it is even harder if you have several talents. Good when you are able to bundle some of them together. But what is it then – ideally you find a profession everybody knows and is common sense. Sometimes, maybe, you have to establish a new one.
Lately someone asked me ‚Are you an artist?‘ ‚Sometimes yes‘ was my answer – because  I am not sitting 24 hours a day here writing or at least 8 hours per day (another friend asked me if I want to publish a book: ‚Yes’ was my answer – it is ONE of the several things that are possible and I want to do).  I have walks and talks with people and animals (mostly with other dogs, obviously), I am dancing and singing along, write and draw, do some shopping and house work, some sports – and sometimes I do just ‚admin‘. So, several roles per day. A South Tyrolean told me: ‚We, the South Tyroleans are able to do many things – but none of them perfectly‘. Ah, man, I am with you …

So – what is it I do MOST OF THE TIME? And with PLEASURE? Better: really LOVE to do? How for heavens sake can I combine these things? OK, would be an ideal world and work for me … but I am sure it is possible. ACT.
