Just a job?
my dream job...
well, what is a job?
something we do to get paid?
that doesn't sound like a dream
that souds like reality
dreams and reality don't often mix
my dream...
my dream is to help people
to become a doctor
to start a clinic
not a clinic for the wealthy,
but one for the poor
maybe in Africa somewhere
my...
my life,
my future,
being a doctor does not sound like a job to me
it sounds like an opportunity
an opportunity to help people, and to help myself
I don't want to be caught up in the wealth of life
I want to be free to give my money to others who's needs are greater than mine
that does not sound like a job,
that sounds like a dream.
Write about your dream job?
well, how about just about my dream?
because my dream is to help people,
the job just tags a long and blocks off legal issues
this dream will change my life
I will no longer be stuck in the country of greed or lust
I will be free from glutiny and wealth
I will find treasures in what is important
I will be able to see people as valuable and not exploitable
this dream "job" is more than a career
it is a changed life
and not just one
I will help people
this "job" won't be just about me
it will be about everyone
because we all have dreams
and maybe living mine,
will help someone else live theirs.
