About the Fishing Cottage Rental - Olive the Lake |
|||||
What do I do with my life? The burning question was branded on my brain for almost two years. What should life be like? Although buying a fishing resort was the first idea, it was actually the last one I pursued. I hunted every corner of Ontario to get a mere scent of the answer. Almost bought a bed and breakfast in Stratford, Ontario. Almost bought a home in Collingwood, Ontario. Almost opened a store in Huntsville, Ontario. And then I ended up almost (and this one was a close one!) buying a cute house with a pool not hundreds of miles away, but across town from where I already lived.

Finally I got on a plane and went to the depths of Peru, Chile and Bolivia, again in search of the answer. I slept in huts made of salt in the deserts, but there was no answer there. I traveled down into mines, 1000 feet far below the surface of the earth, but still no answer did I find. Then one day, I climbed to where the air was very thin, to the top of Machu Picchu. Now I don’t know if you’ve been to Machu Picchu, but that moment, combined with some moving music on an iPod (and more than likely a bit of oxygen deprivation) made me climb right back down that mountain, and email the real estate agent. I moved to Marten River thirty days later and never looked back. The answer was always there; it was just disguised as a childhood dream. All of the almosts, I later realized, were just bumps on the highway to Olive the Lake, and all I had to do was take a left to make my life very right.
