Hey congratulations on having your screenplay being picked up by a major network and being turned into a film. What a fantastic dream come true. Friends, worth the click!

Well thank you very much Billy. Interesting life you lead in Guyana! That’s an amazing choice to leave corporate America for such a remote village. I applaud you on that one. I’m such a comfort person I don’t know if I could do such a drastic move but you gave me a great idea on the EU bit! I so appreciate learning and teaching. I still will never forget my favorite teacher, Mr. McGreevy when he told me that the only way to succeed is to love learning. Boy, did that change my life. Now I think I just want to learn everything! Still, thank you for taking the time to drop by my blog and leave a comment.

Good luck out there!

Oh, thank you! I wish I knew what there was to love about it. I just love writing. Actually, when I watch my fingers float across the keyboard, it so reminds me of being little sitting side by side with my sister as her fingers actually produced tunes. I suppose I have tunes in there too, but mine are strung into words.

Dear TDC, If I’m not mistaken, your above comment might be considered spam. That’s okay, I’ll take the compliment.

Ohhh. I wish I believed your words. Thank you though for saying them. I know when I put my heart into doing something the rewards are enormous. I don’t think I have any answers what so ever. I do try though. I set out to make a positive life for myself. I think the only way to do so is through decidion and practice.

Thanks again. I love your word choices.

BJ, honestly it took years of prayer before actually doing something about it. When I did make my decision and told my boss I was leaving, my body shook but I knew it was right. That was 15 years ago. I wonder if I still have the same courage now.

Great story and great blog Julie!
I too left corporate America at the age of 30, but headed in a bit of a different direction. I moved to a tiny village in Guyana, South America where there is no electricity or running water! I obtained funding from the EU to open a computer education school in this village. We are totally solar powered, we teach free classes to 30 adult and secondary school students 3 times per week. My family and I needed a change, so we made that change happen. Now we are able to make changes happen for other people every day.
Life is a blessing too rich to keep to yourself!
