Your article is very inspiring! It hit me very hard. Reminds me of a constant struggle I am having. My family expects me to graduate college when I have no passion to. My father is a manual laborer and reminds me everyday that if I don't graduate I will be a failure. He has no education past high school.
My mother is a teacher who degrades my father. When I tell her how unhappy I am in school, she belittles me. I have a passion for real estate.
When I have kids, I want to raise them like you did. Accepting of individuality. My generation is attached to "filters" resulting in fakeness. There needs to be more people like you teaching their kids to "stand out of the crowd" and be different. Thank you for your post, you've earned a follower from me!
Thank u! You must follow your dreams & your passion ....u can always take classes online if u wish ,but do not live the dream your parents have for you. ...you want to wake up each morning and smile ! Love what u do and u will be happy!
