True passions don't pay the bills kids

What I've learned in these past few weeks of college is that you have a lot of fun but at the same time you work your butt off doing general credits that don't associate with your major at all. Ridiculous right? Now I'm just complaining. 

Here's my real problem. 

Whatever you are truly passionate for you have to throw that idea to make room for a financially stable job.

You can't be a writer and support a family. 

You can't support a family based on your passions.

Why is that? 

We sit and wonder what it'd be like to do what we love but remember what dad said when he said, "you need to get a real job and throw away that silly childhood dream"

We're taught that all you need in life is love. 

If that's true why is there so much sorrow. 

If all we need is love then we should be able to pursue what we love.

There should be enough jobs available to do what you love. 

But in the end it's all about money and greed and putting dinner on the table. 

You get your education and make your parents happy but don't forget what truly matters. 

Passions. Love. Life.
