I was watching something on TV tonight and some famous actor said that in order to "make it out" you have to follow your dreams. And while I do agree with that, what do you do when life, plain and simple, gets in the way of your dreams. When you have bills and kids and illness to deal with, how do you stay on the path of your dream, no matter what it is. How do you devote all of your time and energy into your passion when you don't have the resources to live?
I get so tired of hearing the rich and famous who want for nothing, who's every financial woe is just not a problem talk about how they were able to just devote all their time to their craft and hard work pays off. I've been working hard every day of my life since I was 13 years old and I'm not living my dream. So what am I doing wrong? I wish someone could give me an answer to that question.

Haters just plain hatin...
Ok, It's about time that I said something...I've been holding my tongue too long about this hating thing. Everyone now a days is a hater. For a long time I thought it was just teenagers running about calling everyone and their mama a hater for not liking the newest soulja boy dance or letting their teenage daughters run around town looking like whores. But oh no, it's not just teenagers. It's adults too! You know it's gotten bad when in the corporate world people are complaining that their boss is 'just hatin'. It's outta control!
Basically, if I'm understanding correctly, it's not okay for people to have their own opinions anymore. It's not okay to dislike anything in pop culture and it's definitely not okay to openly say that you are against an idea. After all, you don't want to be labeled as a hater. So next time you see the raggedy looking girl in the club with her ass out, don't say anything about her bein a nasty b**** cuz then you'll just be hatin. If NKOTB comes to a city near you, don't you dare say that they are washed up and should not be performing cuz then you'll be hatin. And if your boss doesn't give you that raise because your performance hasn't been up to par...please by all means vent to your co-workers that she/he is just being a HATER. After all, it's the acceptable thing to do....right?
WRONG!!! STOP USING THAT WORD! IT'S STUPID AND DOES NOT APPLY TO EVERY SINGLE SITUATION.
