Why have we lost faith?

As I was delivering bread to a store this morning I was causal talking to the receiver about his job. He was telling me how unhappy he was. I asked him why he didn't move on to something he would actually enjoy? He gave me all the usual excesses that we all have used, but he ended by saying that "most people" don't do a job that they really enjoy. Really? It's funny how we talk to the 100 or so people around us and think that covers "most people". At last check there is about 6.9 billion people in the world but I guess that "most of them" that are working, work jobs like his or mine. Why have we given up or lost faith to the fact that this is America? "People" come to this country everyday with nothing and make a better life for themselves. So we can't we that are here, and have lived here our whole lives do better. How is your job? Do you love it or are you one of the "most people"?

"living the dream"

As I got to my first store to deliver this morning, I saw another vendor and asked him how he was doing. His response was one I hear 10 times a day: "living the dream". I usual don't think much of it but today I spent sometime thinking about it. Now I know it's just an expression, but unless your at a job you love, it's kind of scary. I thought this isn't living my dream, this is actually a nightmare. That's why I started this blog in coordination with a book that I'm writing. I'm trying to wake people up to the fact that you can be living your dream. Stay tuned!!
