Job. It's a three-letter word. It's a three-letter symbol of pressure. 

Career. It's a six-letter word for success. It's not necessarily a symbol of power, but it can be. 

Passion. It's a seven-letter word for happiness. It's a symbol of power in its rightful way. Career and passion can intertwine beautifully or clash horribly. 

Remember when I said that passion and career have power in their respective ways? Well, they only have power when they're together.

I know you look at a career and think " I don't have to be happy. I just have to make money."No sweetie, that is not the case. You can be happy and be successful. You can make money and live a beautiful, joyful, glorious life full of love.

You can flourish and grow while surviving. I know you hear stories of people becoming artists and being broke and homeless. But sweetheart, that's not always the case. And even if it is you can change that. You can make it. You don't have to make it big. You can make it just enough to be able to live and be happy

You deserve to live. Not just survive. Live. And I know all your hope has been brutally stripped away by the destroying of your everyday life as you know it.

Take back control and show them that you can live in whatever environment they thrust you into.

Go ahead, you can do it.
