listen to your heart. — 5 months ago
Job searching is hard, trying to weigh the cost of living versus doing what you really want to do. What I really want to do is in DC area, that’s where there are opportunities versus looking in the midwest (Ohio/Indiana) where cost of living is GREAT but no non-profit library/research opportunities.
So, after two months of frustratingly trying to find a [meaningful] job to apply to in a nice place with great cost of living, I may have sold my financial soul to the devil in order to contribute the way I want to, to this life, through in my professional endeavors and career.
Found a great job in DC to apply to that is with a non-profit and it is a research/information job.
For two months I’ve been miserable, not allowing myself to face the facts of having to give up some financial success in order to do what is meaningful to me.
I hope it works out.
