Soon I will be walking off my job of 13 years to do my Music full time. I have gone to school and have over 28 years of practice playing the piano. I can read music and write. Besides that I have been working on my contacts and lining up my ducks in a row to knock them down..
So My question to you. Are you living your dream?

Nope but hopefully in the future. Right now I'm an Real Estate Administrative Assistant. I'm hoping to go back to school next year and get an associates in Business Administration. I'd like to finish school and work on getting a higher paying and more successful job in the Business field.
Wish me luck!

The only dream I've had for awhile was to raise my daughter in a way that allowed her to feel safe, nurtured and confident that she could follow her bliss in whatever direction she wanted. Looks like that is shaping up pretty good. Winning the lottery hasn't panned out yet though.
Congrats!

well not yet, but its coming. i worked as a medical instrument techician by night while working as an engraver for Tiffany & Co by day for 12 1/2 years. the tiffany thing wet my whistle not to give up craft work, so glass blowing and glass bead making will be something i plan to do sometime soon. in the meantime i must still work, so no i'm not living the desired dream yet, but thank god for ("yet" and "soon") because it gives all dreamers something to inspire to. my congrads to ya!!

Hell no...I'm living my nightmare. I have a degree in PR, about to get my MBA in Marketing..but somehow I'm in the clinical research industry testing new and improved cancer sticks and inhaling second hand cigarette smoke all day every day.
...well, atleast its for a Fortune 500 company.
Good luck, homie!

I suppose so. I always wanted a family and that's what I've got, but they're wearing me into the ground with their endless requests for stuff. All I do is cook and clean now........
I'd like a more interesting job as well.

Yes and No. I'm accomplishing the goals I've set for myself, how I'm getting there is not the way I dreamed of, but it's still ok.

Yup. I have my dream job, my dream family and I am living in what I consider the best place in the world.
Dreams are what keep you alive. Never give up on them.
