Struggling and Living the Dream

There are so many people out there that are working jobs that they hate and the years go by, you might say that life passes by. All of this is in pursuit of money, to have all these material belongings, keeping up with the Jones or this day and age it would be the Kardashians. All I know is that when I was part of corporate America I was miserable, my job would follow me home on the weekends and all times and hours of the day and night. Currently I am struggling to get by, I'm able to pay my bills and have enough to survive. However, I am living the dream and I'm happier than I've ever been. I was working as the marketing assistant for a music venue but due to our economy I was cut down to working one day a week and I bartend there for events as well. In the past two months I have become part of a start up company called Dream Town Media (www.dreamtownmedia.com) and we may not be making much money now, but our future looks bright and sunny. Also after a month or so of being ran around I have started writing for a publication called Real Detroit Magazine. I've been writing since I was 9 years old and am so excited to be part of Real Detroit! Did I go to school for marketing or journalism? No, I have a degree in Hotel Management. I'm sure you've all heard that it really is all about who you know. I may be struggling now, but I'm struggling towards a big bright future and I have a lot of wonderful people in my life. They make me smile and realize how lucky I am.
