If you want a fag's response, I shall quote my favorite musical, Sunday in the Park with George: "The only worthwhile things we can leave behind in this world are children and art." So, yeah, propegating the species is nice, but I feel the art we leave behind is much more valuable (you could also consider childern a form of art...but that's another debate entirely). Don't think of it as a career, think of it as futhering your art.
And we're on your livejournal because it IS witnessing a glimpse into your life. I love looking at my old posts and contemplating where i was at that moment and where I am now.

That's all. I love you. Peace out.

how to live a successful life as a vagrant

Think of a career as a means to an end, the end being personal fulfillment. One works because one wants to work harder, and one works harder because at some point that work will transform itself into the key to our own personal paradise. As desperately Communist as that sounds, it's true. If you are only working to work, not aspiring to something beyond yourself, then you'll have a shit career. Right now I work so that I can go to New Zealand, which at this point in time makes work (my blossoming career as a receptionist and personal assistant) the key to my kiwi-sex-filled paradise. I could easily work my way up the ladder, or towering spires of paper as you have described the situation, and find myself having spent all my energy on superficial financial gain. But what I love about financial gain is what it allows me to do. So... What I'm saying is... Don't work so that you can't see what it is that you're working for anymore. Think of it as learning to walk, and know that learning to walk is a necessary part of getting to New

you know kat, naea has a point. you could always be a carpenter. look at jesus. he was a carpenter, and people freakin' worship him. maybe you can start a carpentry religion.

i know how you feel, but this new job venture could open your eyes to a whole new way of expressing yourself (hello, i was a receptionist for a summer at rlt and it fucking changed my whole "career" path). and at least you'd still be working in and furthuring the arts and not a slave to corporate society (sorry, nae).

so go out, make a difference, and then go make more differences other places. (but it's always gonna take a little cash to get to that next destination)

Yeah, i know. i know i know i know i know . . . . i just needed to hear it, because the only voice i'm hearing right now is the one in my head telling me to be some sort of rebel without a cause.
