What I want: I want to live on my own. In the middle of nowhere in a little town with book store and rescue cats. Not one of those white-Hallmark-conformist towns, hopefully something more subversive. Maybe it could be a commune.Life would be so much simpler.

What I know: I know that I will not allow myself to live that way without using my gifts first. I was granted with gifts in writing, debating, analysis, critical thinking, and intellect. I want to put these to good use and help others. This will probably require me to work a 9-5 monotonous job. I will be part of a system I don’t agree with.

What I will do: I will join that system. I’ll take the 9-5. Maybe later I will have the privilege to do what I want, not what I know.
