It's not that clear baby, i know people that gave up doing things that feed them for their called passion-other profission.
Remember that some parents say: "don't go for that, you wont succed" bla, bla. Sometimes it's really hard to choose.Some are unfortunate on how the system is
Oh, I'm not one to let my dreams be easily crushed, but I KNOW that I will never make it as a singer. That...and I don't know if I would enjoy that in the long run...
The only problem with the peace corp is they want you to spend a minimum of two years or something like that. Not sure if I could make that kind of committment... but I applaud anyone else that does!
If I didn't have children it would be different. They like to eat. A lot. So, I'd have to say I will wait until they're grown and can feed themselves, and then think about volunteering somewhere. (of course AFTER I win the lottery)
Well when I do find time I also participate in some search and rescues in the White Mountains.... it's volunteer only.
Hopefully this summer I'll be joining an official search and rescue team. Still volunteer but they give you some formal training, and it's fun. I like mountains and have lots of experience climbing them so I figured why not put it to use????
as for the thing that I really love, I would just work on it in my spare time until I have it down to a science.......then I would DROP the feeding and get to the loving..........
