However, I do have some good news to share on the work front. Apparently, verbal commitment that my role will not be removed from site has been given (verbal is better than nothing I guess). This means that I can stick to the current FIFO work arrangement which is something Ision and I really like.
If I'm indeed staying in this job in the medium term, at this rate, I'll hit my next savings goal in a little under 2.5 years. By then, I'll have to seriously consider if I really want to continue in this line but for now, it's back to work for me.
In my last post, I mentioned that I'd be heading to my first-ever cruise. I'm glad to report that I had a great time and that I'm not rejecting the idea of going on another one. There are some nice pictures and videos to show you but I'll leave that to my next post.
The musical offering this month is a song I wrote for a friend when I was still living in Sydney. He was lonely back then and was trying to find a partner. I was in the same situation (perhaps many times worse) years before when I was still struggling with coming out so it was easy to tap into that experience and energy for this song.
This friend is now happily attached in a long-term relationship and often makes me a little jealous how happy he is with his partner. So for those out there still living in "singledom" and seeking, I strongly feel that there's always someone out there for everyone, so be patient, hang in there and enjoy this new composition in the meantime.
[I Know]
If love is just around the corner
Why does my hurt find no closure
Can happiness be any closer
An open story with no ending
No, it's not over
An open heart that's waiting for
A keeper
Come out
Oh come out of the shadows
Here I am standing in this cold
I need your hand to hold
I will share with you my soul
The moon is shy tonight
As I meander along these street lights
So many pretty faces shining bright
Never stopping
Never ever locking eyes
I know one fine day someone will
Be mine
Come out
Oh come out of the shadows
I don't wanna do this alone
Love is out there I’ve been told
You’re out there somewhere
I know
I know
I don't know
I know
I don't know
I know
I don't know
I know
