People who have jobs they really want to do are the luckiest people. Do the majority of us really want their current jobs to be their lifelong occupation? Sometimes the money is great but is it really what you envisioned yourself doing with your life. If it is then feel blessed, you've succeeded, you've found your place. Really though who says to themselves "I want to be a server when I grow up," or "I really hope I can work in a toll booth someday." Sounds like that anti-drug commercial; "Nobody ever says I want to be a junkie when I grow up." An astronaut, fireman, doctor, actor, athlete, writer, singer, artist, dancer, or teacher maybe, but never a barista, or a clerk, or a fast food manager. Why do we settle for these things? Why do we abandon our dreams? Sometimes we have to. It's a shame though. Everybody should be able to earn money doing something they love, not something they put up with. Of course then who is going to wash our dishes, build our roads, guard our malls, of fix the sewers?
