Day 105 | “You really love what you do, don’t you?”

Last Monday I came back from a working session over in the cafe and continued working at home for a while before it was dinner time. As I sat working D came over, looked at my sketches and said “You really love what you do, don’t you?”.

I’m lucky to have found something that I really love doing. Something that pays the bills and allows me to venture out on my own two feet and work with other incredibly talented people who share the same passion – they love what they do and they want to do it. Make a dent and shape things for the better.

Design is the choices we make about the world we want to live in.
We make our world what it is and we become the kind of people who live in it.
What do we want to spend more time with? What do we want to shape us? What nourishes us? What do we want to see grow?
You know what we get to do when we leave here? We get to go make things.
Things that nudge the world a little bit in what we hope is the right direction.
We get to put a dent in the universe.
This is a great job.
