I will be fine.
This last month as been a soul searching journey that I did not sign up for. I have found myself with a college education and no means to anything worthy right now. I have spent the last four-maybe five-years of my life applying myself to gain this degree. All in hopes to continue graduate school. This is the only thought i had had-this is all having to be done to get into grad. school-to finish my program to make some money. I have now found myself with this degree-no grad. school and thoughts about whether or not this is ultimately what I want to do in my big scheme of things.
My mind is so full of of thoughts about what I want to do-how I dont know what I want to do-How I can make things work. In the end the big deal is having some $$$. The thought of this lightweight overproduced product controling my thoughts is going to cause me to live in my damn car.
I have not been in such a financial bind since I was living in my first house in college, trying to decide whats more important to buy-ciggs or food. And ciggs always won.
I am applying for jobs currently-and am finding myself applying and looking at jobs because of the amt of money I can capitalize on. This is exactly how I dont want to be living my life. But because I chose the route of higher education I am forever bound to loans for a degree I thought I cared so much about.
I know that the degree I chose is one in which I would be successful at given the opprotunity, but damn the man. I want to enjoy my job. my life. my thoughts.
Happiness is the way, the only way to live.
Im so frustrated with where I am in my life-but also need to know that I can take this as a positive or negative experience. Either way-this a chapter of my life that I will never forget.
Props to my muffin last night for giving me a much needed reality check. As were talking and I’m complaining about not having any money-hating my job-being fed up with grad. school-he says I should-but don’t have to-apply for 2-3 jobs this week. Love the constructive criticism.
As were laying in his bed I say, “Im so frustrated with where I am right now.”
He says,”Its so nice in here right now, very relaxing.” to that I reply, “It really is wonderful right now.” He proceeds to say, “Did you just hear yourself, you said its wonderful right now, Goodnight baby.”
All of this stated in a candlelit room with the windows open-some of my favorite feelings arise.
So happy that I have someone to reality check me-I am in a wonderful spot-I am very happy.
I need to take this time-allllll thiiiissss Tiiiimmmmeee-I have and enjoy it and consider it a gift to figure out what makes me happy-what im so passionate about.
And what my big plan.is.gonna.look.like.
