dreams
I met a friend earlier, whom I have known for 10 years.
He told me something that surprised me. He told me that he dreamt of being a painter when he was young. He did try going for his dream. He liked drawing and he learned all sort of arts. His first job was actually an illustrator. He quitted after few months, when he realized that he couldn’t put his hobby into his job.
What surprised me was, across all these years, I never heard of him talking about any sort of arts. Even though his present job requires some sort of artistic skills.
There is another friend, who was struggling whether he likes his job or not.
Well, why bother? A job is a job. You like it does not mean you can do it well. What you need is a job which you can do well. (of course you can’t hate it) If you are looking for a hobby, just take some courses at SPACE after work.
Did I have a dream? Sadly no. But for a long period of time, I was thinking of being a social worker (and later on a psychologist). Can’t believe it, huh?
