Shifting priorities

When we started the journey, we were so focused on getting to financial freedom. We put our eyes on the money, and we didn't expect superior results if we behaved normal.

We still don't behave normal, and we still have our eyes on the money.

Yet, there is a shift in our priorities. It is as if we start to settle in, realizing that we have enough and will soon have abundance.

And now, other things come back to our cone of light. 

Friends. But not the friends from before. Instead our friends have grown closer. It's not the ones we want to hang with, like one would hang with a bottle of beer. Instead our friends are those we care about, who don't compare themselves with us, that don't give much for the normal, that inspire us and attract us, that we can spend a night and a day chatting with. 

Family. But not the struggles of the past, but the appreciation of in-laws, the happiness of our nieces and nephews, a good hour spent with an old grandpa or aunt.

Art. Art is developing as a concept for us a little as well. But here we are still searching. We have some enterprises that reach out, and we feel that art wants to reach out. We still don't know everything that hides here.

Travel? Not so much. Even though we realize that with tons of bonus points piling up it's basically free for us to go where ever we want. But we still can't think that much of where that would be. We start to realize that there are other factors that are important to us. We don't want to travel for the same reasons as before, with the emptiness of escaping, for we have nothing to escape from anymore. 

That doesn't mean that we're never going to change the scenery around us. But then travel is more a background, and not actually of much importance.

We start to realize that most important for us might be to help the sun wander over the sky; helping ourselves, helping those we care about, and helping humanity to be a little better. 

Hermes, messenger from the Gods and wanderer of light over the skies.

And in the end, when the sun settles in the west, we know that the most important thing for us might be too be able to say; it was a good day.

Farewell
