What do you want to be doing?

I had a bit of a rush of shit to the head and wrote this Facebook post.
It's true though. I would also book myself into a fat camp for 6 weeks but we can't have everything ;-)

Joking aside, Mama and Papa Raw always wanted to make sure we were a) happy and b) doing what we wanted to be doing. No major pressure to get 'all A's' it was just 'do your best'.
Baby Raw would save all the animals and run a farm for free and make loads of craft stuff in her spare time if she didn't have bills to pay. I would foster all the animals, help all the new young acting and science students, and act in and produce plays and films for free if I didn't have to worry about bills. 
We are both lucky enough to have found a way to do, as a job, the thing we would do for free if bills didn't need paying.
I know my depression is sometimes a cunt and I know life has sometimes chucked me a load of shite that was just fucking annoying and a bit like Takeshi's Castle without the Japanese people or the fun, BUT on the whole, I'm pretty much doing what I want to be doing, alebit on a very shoestring budget. 
I've had the £30K+ a year jobs and they are not 'all that' if you don't enjoy or believe in what you are doing for the money you are getting every month, trust me on that one.
