taking back the power and the passion
i haven't been able to get these thoughts out of my head. this burden has decended upon me lately when i realize i do not have power over my own life. i put on a good front, but as it turns out i don't.
i have been very very fortunate to have a family that supports me when it comes to my education and what not, but i have realized that with that support i have lost the power over my life. i dont have a choice but to finish school, whether i like it or not.
bullshit.
it goes back to am i really happy and am i doing what i really want to be doing. i've said for years i wanted to teach. but what does that really mean?
i dont have to be in some school somewhere to teach. i can teach anywhere. i dont need some bullshit fucking degree to give me permission to teach. i dont need some bullshit degree to do what i love to do.
when did we all lose our power?
i think many of us lost it and dont even know it. it's taken me until now to figure it out. i'm 30 years old and i just now realized i have been powerless most of my life.
that ends now. ok, before anyone in my family who may for some unknown reason actually reads this panics, i'm not saying i'm dropping out of school tomorrow.
but that's not to say i won't tell school to fuck off and go after what i want.
i have that power now. i got it back when i realized i didnt have it. that was the major step. gain control of your life. sure there is a lot of money invested in my education so far, but what have i really learned with that education?
100 times less than ive learned by leaving campus and meeting people and getting active in life. i dont give a damn what 2+2 equals. i care about passion.
PASSION.
perhaps my all-time favorite word. passion in life, love and relationships. have passion for what you do and do what you are passionate about. take the power back and live.
