I just want to tell you a short story.
Once upon a time there was a girl who desperately loved drawing. On everything... Walls, desk of a table, newspaper, books, papers, glass... As she grew up, her dreams were to become a: pilot of a huge boeing, capitain of an ocean cruiser, singer, pianist, music composer, circus artist, gymnast, architect, painter, writer of books.
She was studying several schools (elementary, high, university), and taking some special lessons of arts and music.
Then she had to find a job and behave as any other adult. She became a product manager of software products. Interesting job... But nothing what she would love to do till the end of her days. She decided to find a better one.
So she became a "businessman" in one local internet providing company. (or better said a businnes woman"?)... She used to sell and offer domain names, webhosting, serverhosting, internet connection, ftp hosting and so on... But, again, after a year she knew this wasn´t the right job for her.
A new work was found. She started to work in marketing of one large screen printery. Well, that was more interesting than 2 former jobs... But...
She found another job. She worked as a Manager of Education. Well, sounds great. But behind the nice name of the position was so much of boredom, clerk and paper work, lies, affection and order to wear business suits she hated.
So she answered two job offers she found on the internet. Both of them were searching for graphic designers.
On thursday she took a free day at work and went to job interview. On Friday she gave notice and on Monday she signed a new employee contract. She became a graphic designer. Finally she found what she was looking for.
Are you asking who is the girl? And what the hell does the story have to do with the fact I had no time to write a new journal for so long time? A lot... The girl is me.
Finally, I have a creative job I always wanted. Thanks God or whoever manages those things for giving me the chance. Thanks for the power that was pushing me further and keeping me fighting for what I wanted. Many people didn´t understand why I wasn´t satisfied with what I had. They were telling me - you have a work! Many people don´t! And you want to find a new job? Do you think you can choose? Calm down girl! You´re not gonna find what you are looking for! You have no chance!
They were wrong.
The message from me to you all: Never give up on what you are longing for. Work hard. Even if you are hopeless. Everything has it´s meaning. Sometimes we see the meaning in a moment, sometimes we get it in months, sometimes in years. A little bitter thing is, sometimes the life is not so long to find the meaning at all. We have to learn a lot before we gain what we were looking for. If you stay strong, you´ll achieve it.
Special greetings to all graphic designers!
And very special greeting to you all reading this journal. Thank you.
