October 8, 2010 at 5:00 PM -- Well, that was an eventful date and time. That is when I left the employment of Indiana University, in the hopes of returning to the creative world of theatre. Nothing definite yet, so we will see where and how this all ends up. Just that the time came when I came to the realization how much I truly missed following my passion and that I DO have control over my life. "Counting beans" is not what I was meant to do and when the opportunity to return to theatre came, it was, basically, a no brainer. With Mother's and Dad's passings I took a serious look at Life's priorities. And, part of the "gift" from Mother and Dad is that I have the financial resources to pursue my passion once again....for a little while. In what capacity I once again follow my dream is yet to be determined; however, it's something that if I didn't seize the possibility of an opportunity, I would end up regretting it for the rest of my life. So, as of October 8, 2010 at 5:00 PM or so....I'm voluntarily unemployed, Perhaps I'm nuts to be doing this in the midst of the economic envionment, but again, if I didn't jump at this chance of an opportunity, I'd regret it....and would end up in deepter depression. So, I'm taking control of my destiny.

Alan I'm so proud of you. It's hard to make these kinds of choices but so important for our soul. Good luck. you are doing the right thing.
