These past couple of months, I have felt like my parents have attempted to stop me from having the career of my choice (which would be something that does not lack creativity), for the future. I have felt as if they have set boundaries, and put up walls to impede that I get to where I want to be in life. So, in Wellness class last week, when the class talked about success and parent pressure, I began to tear up, and cry, because I have felt this too, and I noticed then that I am not alone in this. I finally had a place to let everything out, and people would understand me. Normally, though, I take everything out here in my blog, because sometimes I feel as if it is a place where no one will know who I am (obviously though my friends and teachers know that is me) and I like the feeling of telling the world anonymously. I haven’t done this lately, and I think that this affected me because I have no one to tell.
Anyways, on to the good news. I spoke to my parents the other day about wanting to be something creative when I am older, and they are still against it, saying the usual: you will not have the lifestyle you have today, etc. but, they are more accepting that I do want to be something creative and that I will never abandon my creativity for a more technical career. My parents have agreed to let me take a photography class in my next school (because I have found a passion for photography) and I think that this will be my chance to prove to them that I can be successful in this line of work. So, for now, we have reached an agreement, or midpoint. For now, that is, because I am not ready to give up my dreams of having a career involving creativity (such as photography, for example).
Sincerely,
Me.
