So, careers have been on my mind for a while now. People keep asking me, "so what exactly are you doing in Edmonton?"
Me: "I work in a corner office with marble floors and a gold desk."
That is what I want to say but alas, my response is a woeful tale of being unemployed for a long time and then having the opportunity to work as a general labourer for a family friend. To which, people say, "oh well, I'm sure you will find your career soon. Just be patient."
But do I dare ask the question - WHEN? It has almost been two years since I've graduated and I don't have much to show. My dream is to work in a communications department in a non-profit organization. This is my dream.
My reality is slightly different.
My favourite blogger Jon Acuff (www.stuffchristianslike.net) is writing a new book about people who are currently working at something but have a dream to do something else. Like being an accountant but wanting to be a painter.
What is your dream? And are you pursuing it right now?
