Your Life, You Decide

How do you decide what exactly it is you want to do with your life? Where does the answer come from? Does it come from somewhere deep inside or is it a flashing neon sign that tells you where your future lies. Why is it that what you want to do inevitably NEVER makes money but takes money, why is it that our passions turn into hobbies so that we can support ourselves and our families? Why is this world set in such a pattern that requires self sacrifice for ungrateful corporations and grouchy bosses? Who decides our path? Is it the people and circumstances around us, or our soul?
