Compensation

So, I'm tired today. Worked 101 hours over the past 2 weeks. Whew! Brings up the question...Does anyone ever really feel that they are paid what they're worth? I suppose, if you don't like your job the obvious answer would be no. But, for those of us who love what they do and actually look forward to working, the answer should be yes, or "it doesn't matter". Lol. Wouldn't it be awesome if we could all work in the field we are entirely passionate about and actually be able to make a living? If that were true, I'd paint shoes all day, work on puzzles, write, put up BE KINDER billboards every where, take my BE KINDER mission to the schools as a resident artist, go to the casino, travel, and sleep. I wonder if those people who are independently wealthy truly enjoy their lives and what they spend their time doing. I wonder if I didn't have to carve out time to do my "passionate" things if I would enjoy them as much. I think it's important to spend at least a little time each day doing what you find emotionally satisfying, whether or not you are being compensated. I feel a sense of peace and abandonment when I am creating, like for just a few minutes all the other "stuff" just doesn't matter. What are you passionate about?

Today is count and write to 50 day.
