I feel like I have hit a brick wall. And from here, there are two choices.

Choice A: Continue on as I have been, applying for jobs that have the potential to be careers, and will earn enough money for my family to live comfortably, assuming that eventually one of them take a chance and hire me. This path is very hopeful.

Choice B: Start applying for jobs that don't pay well, that anyone could get, and that would probably be a lot more willing to hire me. Money would be tight for a very long time, things would still be stressful, but there would at least be income. This path is settling for something less.

In my heart of hearts, I am a dreamer. I live for the hope of how things could be, and thrive off of having something to put faith in. But at the same time, sometimes life pushes changes upon us that can't be helped.

So, is it time to heed life's push? Or do I hang on a little bit longer, with my family feeling the consequences of my not being ready to settle for less?
