Playing with a thought

Just having time to myself these days makes me wonder what life would be like if I stopped working. You know how the government has projected a population of 6.5m in the next 40- 50 years. That raised questions on how the government is supporting this target. While there have been baby bonuses handed out to lighten the financial costs of raising a family, the more vital question is how to bring up a child without being absent in their growing years. I don't think I'm ready for a child now, because the way I work already leaves me with little time for my family. I really cant imagine how life will be so different when it's a baby who will require attention 24/7. I would consider stop working in my child's most vital years to make sure that I spend time with my child, to pass on values and be the one to hear their first word...

Then I had a crazy creative idea. I could embark on a job that I can work from home, something like baking! I recently got interested in baking though I have not gotten down to trying it out yet. I have came across websites and articles and people who have been ordering customized cakes, cupcakes, etc. so it seems there is a market for this business of customization. So I started my research online and found some options for me to take this to another level. I've a feeling I could do this, yeah like as a job.

So first, I would have to learn to start baking!
