Let's have a little Dr. Seuss-inspired fun, shall we?

What do I do?
Are we defined by what we do?
I do not think so — no, I do not!
But what rot, to not take note
Of the coats that we wear.
For there, in the doing,
The coats over our souls
Are at least partly shown!

There have been many do's I have chosen to do.
Become a teacher? I did that, it's true.
A healer of Chinese Medicine and Kinesiology?
A regenerator of bushland, wild and free?
Yes, yes, and yes — I have done all three!
But the doings of my current days, if you please,
Are as an engineering manager, steering the drive
To renewable energy — helping us thrive.

But let's not forget the doings of fun!
Dance, festivals, hiking, and runs!

Now — I'm looking for one week, maybe three, maybe more.
"But why one week?" I hear you say. "That seems short and strange, for sure!"
But what is one to do when the heart takes notice?
But move towards the one who woke it?

And so I travel south to Christie Beach,
To grow closer to someone who has captured my attention —
And perhaps to move there from Brisbane,
Should life align with that intention.
