I enjoy my day time work – I’m by turn consultant, teacher, guide and advisor.
It’s time consuming work – I have to shape my domestic arrangements around irregular hours and a congested diary. My social and sex life lingers even further behind that.
I work hard not to make myself sound like a victim. I’m not. I love my work, and my independence that comes from having a pretty unique role in a large organization.
It’s actually a selfish attitude on my part, and a selfish way of existing.
At the same time though it’s a little self defeating – I can’t be as good a friend as I’d like to be because of my selfishness, and my need for independence on my own terms.
Knowing what I do about myself now my history of failed relationships shouldn’t be a huge surprise.

Whilst tempted to quote Einstein i think that would miss the point of the fact you are happy with the way things are.And if you were not you could not be the Master you are.
