Work has Begun

My life has always had a certain tempo. It shifts and wavers with the rhythms around me. And when it hits the proper resonate frequency, Tacoma Narrows is recreated, albeit with less disastrous results.

The physics of resonance may give better insight into my life's current changes.
Resonance - the tendency of a system to oscillate at maximum amplitude at certain frequencies An object may have more than one resonant frequency. In fact, for as many degrees of freedom an object has, it has an equal amount of resonant frequencies. And when the resonant frequency is matched, the object begins to oscillate with as much amplitude as the object will allow.

Rather than waste time with itemizing my internal and external degrees of freedom in a list for all to critique and analyze, allow me to define a prominent one in the past weeks: my budding career.

Banking was a more recently-developed goal for me. I didn't grow up dreaming of becoming a banker, nor did I know of the profession. But the more I get into it, the more I wish I would have known about it longer. So that's the DoF I was alluding to before. I was very interested in the field starting a few years ago and it just so happened that I was in a perfect position to capitalize on the new-found desire. The more exposure I get, the closer I match the resonate frequency of my goals, the more my amplitude extends.

It may sound like a dark prognosis--a rabbit-hole-type obsession is brewing; it isn't. This is the beginning of a career about which I'm passionate. This bodes well for Nicole and I as well. I can't deny my job will be stressful at times--it will be--but enjoying a stressful job and despising one is the difference between a positive and a negative disposition. This is an exciting time and my rhythm is catching up with it.

Batten down the hatches, I say. We're in for an exciting ride.
Also, I now can afford some wonderful cooking opportunities...
