Crisis of Faith

I'm being given a reality check and it bounced. This blog is about my new and exciting journey into a new life, a new way of living, a great adventure. If this was a movie, this is montage part where I'm struggling to pursue my dreams and it's getting hard.

My landlord is selling my home and in all likelyhood I will be forced to move. No problem you say, just find another place. However, before I can find another place I have to lodge an application and when they see that I'm producing a payslip that doesn't even make the cost of the rent per week, it's a fair bet I won't be taken in as a tenant. Even worse if I apply for a mortgage to try and get off the rental treadmill.

For the first time since I left the I.T. industry I just checked the job ads for my I.T. skills. They're offering about $80K a year. Oh so so soooo tempting!

Is this what it boils down to: Be a dreamer and risk being homeless? Or give up the dream and have material security?

Is the cosmos sending me a message? Or is it putting me through a test of faith?
