Run, Boy, Run!
7.16.12
Let's talk about the future, shall we? Some questions to discuss: Where are we going? What is at the end of these tiring days? Why do we do the things we do? — for what? My mind is like Times Square... always moving non-stop. I've been thinking about where to go from here in terms of career, love, and money. Freelancing just doesn't cut the cheese. And I've been applying for hundreds of jobs but no replies yet.
The question of time plays a major part of everything we do. Is it the right timing? Will there be a turnover? I guess we'll never know if we give up halfway right? I'm very fortunate to have working friends that I look up to who are making big bucks and living their lives and doing the good ol' 9 to 5 jobs. I suppose it could get really stale; some of my friends have confirmed with me. So, even if today nothing is happening... that doesn't mean it won't tomorrow. But am I in a rush to get to that state of the steady mundane 9 to 5 for until who knows when? NO. And if I were go get into that routine, I better fucking love what I do — every second of it.
Until then, whenever you feel down and hopeless, remind yourself one thing: At this point in your life right now, you look up – you're not there yet, but when you look down – you're at a better place than some of the people below you. It is really hard being creative in these times where money talks, and the latest trends rules but you know... it's only valuable because WE, OURSELVES, inject that value into whatever it is. You have the power. We have the power.
