My work.

I have found a part time job as a data collector. It is slow to start but I am grateful for it. However this thing about work continues to be a mystery. The other day a healer said to me, "You have not found your work". 

She is right. 

I am not sure how that is helpful I already knew it. I guess now that it is confirmed I can begin to look for "my work". 

As a child from a blue collar family I grew up believing ones "work" is a job one gets to pay the bills and then you do your best to be good at it as a side effect of integrity. I have not understood work as something that fills one up. In the world I come from a person could be filled up by family or spiritual life. But not work. What does it mean to find ones work?

Where does one begin to look?
