It is very hard these days to decide what you want to do, especially for University and High School graduates, with the job market being hard to enter.

One of the remedies that helps us to find our direction in life is Wild Oat.

It's time for another adventure. I am getting itchy feet, and I am bored with this dead-end job. There is a whole world out there that needs to be explored, interesting places to visit, another mountain to climb, and maybe I could combine my trip with voluntary work. Oh, to be free again, nobody telling me what to do, free as a kite blowing in the wind.  Maybe one day I will figure out what I really want to do with my life.  It is on the tip of my tongue.  In the mean time, I will stick a pin in the map and off I will go until something more interesting comes along.

At last it has come to me; I know exactly what I want to do. Thank you, Wild Oat.  The funny thing is, it was staring me in the face all along.  Without knowing it, I wrote down where I wanted to live in a friend's visitors book, and the move actually materialized.  Wow, I am actually happy now living on a beautiful island, working and having found the man on my dreams.

Straggling looking Wild Oat grows in hedgerows and wooded areas, and by the roadside, helping those lost to find their way.  Tall thin grass with a drooping head, it scatters its seeds wherever the wind takes them.
