I've been...Shawn, <BR/> You're killin' the hope here. I've been in school for the last 8 years in hopes of "making it," whatever that means. While not unusually bright, gifted, or otherwise extraordinary; I think I have managed to be generally nice... So now you're telling me it's a lost cause? You're telling me that becoming an architect for fame, glory, and riches was a mistake? You're telling me to give up the dream and go work in an engineering office, punching numbers and stamping soulless calculations for a living? <BR/> Ok. So I didn't really go into architecture for the big bucks or the fame and glory. Hopefully that means I won't be disappointed. <BR/> I think it is true that nice guys/gals finish last a lot in some things, so that they can get theirs where it matters: family, friends, peace of mind, etc. There are some dreams I guess that just aren't worth giving up those things for. So, Shawn to a slightly younger individual of considerably less experience would you say it was worth it?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17833142.post-1137256805496615902006-01-14T11:40:00.000-05:002006-01-14T11:40:00.000-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.sHandke ARThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09409489794191797577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17833142.post-1137178734140946282006-01-13T13:58:00.000-05:002006-01-13T13:58:00.000-05:00Yeah!

And perhaps I shouldn't have gone to that stupid singles dance back in 1998...<BR/><BR/>But to be truly honest I'm glad that I did, because otherwise I wouldn't have learned everything that I've learned today... We all have our woulda shoulda couldas...<BR/><BR/>But, you are truly a very lucky human being, and there are people who would give up anything to have what you have... Your health, your family, your husband, and your faith in the gospel...<BR/><BR/>I know it's not fame and fortune, but it's LOVE... And what's more important than that?Brinnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14587642001220520411noreply@blogger.com
