A good chef makes a choice to become an avarage salesman and he hates his job, but he doesn't know that he is a good chef. Then one day, years later, he makes the discovery that he is a good chef.
He is lucky he made the discovery eventually, most don't, or when they do, assume it is too late to act on, too much risk, too much of a salary cut.
Pssion was aflame as it still is today and I only wish I had known about it earlier in my life!
I think it is the "try many things" that leads to it and perhaps, a young you/us can't comprehend what passion really is when it is present.
That is exactly the problem. We become established in our lifestyles, doing what we hate to do for the sake of money. So well do I remember the bitterness of my ex father in law that stayed at the same company all of his sad life. No friends and a solitary foul mouthed old soul that eventually died in his bitterness.
I like to see people happy and smiling, regardless of their conditions, or situations and if I can do something about creating a bit of that happiness then I make myself happy. Simple and sweet!
I have the feeling a lot of the younger generation will live this life unless they start waking up to the disconnection they are participating in.
Yeah right and it will get worse over time by the looks of things.
I see here that as the old folks die off, the tennis courts and club houses are starting to empty. Once lively places are standing silent and forlorn!
