How I responded to discouragement
THE NOISE
Messages from Society in general:
There isn't money going into educating or mentoring others, especially if it depends on the school district.
How I responded:
It's not about the money, but the quality of life you want. It's important to feel that your passions are equal to your work life. People have to understand that money can't buy your happiness.
