So, as I sit here taking full advantage of my Thanksgiving break, pondering about what to write next and how
many readers have forgotten about me, I can't help but wish that I had more
time to do the things that make me happy. For example, life would be wonderful
if every day I could write, read and ponder how to solve world hunger. Since
none of those pay the bills at the moment, I am out of luck.
Am I the only one that deals with this? There must be other
college students out there fighting through temporary jobs and day to day
"have-to" activities. I will go ahead and assume you exist when I say
this:
There is a light at the end of the tunnel my friends. What
gets me through these hard days is knowing that there WILL be a day when I am
doing something that fully makes me happy. There will be a day when I wake up
and not feel like I am going to work but spending another day doing what I
love. There will be a day when I am operating under passion and not under
force. To make sure I get there, I try to remind myself of my long term goals
every day. I will not settle and I will not give up on the idea that my dream
job exists. Although I am capable of being realistic, I am not ready to give
into the realities that shadow dreams. For me, as long as these dreams still
exist and I believe there will be a day that they become a reality, my everyday
becomes easier to get through. My everyday becomes just another stepping stone
to get to that day.
Today's post may have been cheesy and cliché. Today's post
may not reach anybody. But it was a much needed vent for me. As I have said
before, this blog will not only serve a purpose for my readers but for me as
well. So, since I have used tonight's blog space for some self-venting, please,
readers, use the comment space to do the same.
Twenty-somethings, what keeps you motivated? What makes your
days easier? Or are your days even hard and you have some advice to share with
us about what got you through in the past?
