Destiny: Following Your Dreams

I went out for drinks Friday night with my boyfriend then we got hungry so we stopped in at a BurgerFi. There we began speaking to this 17 year old employee about life. It got me thinking, I wish I knew someone like me when I was that age.

He told us that his mother wants him to go to college because she never went and he did not think that was the path for him. I could relate to this kid 100%. I went to school because my mom wanted me to, I joined the military because my dad wanted me to. What about what I want to do?

What are you doing about it?

Lately life has been very stressful for me. Started a new job where I am doing four positions in one but being paid less, trying to make ends meet, apartment hunting because the place I moved into less than a year ago has been nothing short of a nightmare, while maintaining a store and trying to keep up with a blog... Oh and to add insult to injury, today I got into a car accident.

I found myself complaining more than usual lately and feeling sorry for myself because how much can one take?
However, I had to take a step back and think after having a discussion with my boyfriend.

What am I doing about it?
