Fulfilling is the operative word @ackhoo. Some can find it in their career, but the majority of people who may have once had a dream of what that career would be, become disillusioned and want a better overall lifestyle.
Takes courage and in my experience, sometimes (can be often) doing without 'things' that others may have, in order to pursue a 'creative' path.
But when you do 'follow your passion' you have far more enthusiasm and energy to do whatever you see needs doing.
Still there's a lot to weigh up and we need to be wise and practical in our decisions as well. I wish you well in whatever you do.
Agreed! I wish you well too, my friend!
