When I was a little boy I wanted to sing music all my life. That was most certainly going to be my career no matter what. Some other kids wanted to be firefighters, doctors, astronauts, etc. I just wanted to sing. I don't know if it's the kid still in me with childish ambition or what, but I still just want to play music. I could do other things, sure, but they don't feel right to me and I feel like if I only have one life on this planet, I should get to do what I love with my life. Not for money's sake or so I can be famous, I just want to be able to support myself (and possible family), and I want to make music that helps people through the day. I don't think I should have to let that go.
Don't assume I just think I am privileged; I don't. I think everyone should enjoy every breath they have on this great big ball. Sadly, I have wasted many of my breaths thus far in life worrying and mulling "what if's." There wouldn't really be a problem with world of everyone doing what they actually wanted to do would there? Sure, it would look different than our current world, but not necessarily bad. We would still have people in all sorts of positions. Some things don't even interest the average "fella" that I enjoy and vice versa. I just would like to see everyone like that for one day; in a niche that they absolutely loved. Maybe that would turn more people to know Christ even; to be grateful for all their blessings. I don't know, I'm just a dreamer like any other dreamer who hasn't given up hope on this world yet. I don't think anyone deep within their being really wants to hurt another human either if there weren't a trigger in their past somewhere. Call that being naive if you will, but it's practicality to me. One of the many definitions for being naive is having sincerity anyway, so maybe my naiveness isn't such a terrible thing anyway.
Remember we can do all things through Christ as we see in Phillipians 4:13. The Bible isn't a fictional novel, it's an absolute truth that was very intentionally written. That verse wouldn't be in there if it were not true. So, if you're an irrational dreamer like myself, lets take that chance, and trust in God to make it happen.
