Drawn to the Fire

Life seems good enough right now. I am sitting in a good enough workplace I  can qualify to be. I am working a good job that my qualifications would allow. The colleagues and the staff are lovely too. I have a supportive boss at work, and I’m paid pretty well. It is good enough, I guess.

From the window beside me, a warm breeze flows into the cold office cabin. It neutralizes the chill the air conditioner introduces consistently into the cabin. The insides are a warm cream, and the light yellow bulbs give the office a cozy look. It’s warm, comfortable, cozy. It is good enough. There is nothing to complain about. If I had to ask for something, there isn’t a lot lacking. Except everything is lacking.

Passion. Drive. Happiness. I am comfortable right now in life, too comfortable that I am bored. I don’t want just to be comfortable. I want to feel the drive, the hunger to achieve what lies next in the near future. Every day, I want to be on a journey towards my dreams, the goals that inspire me.  

It is not that I do not have something I’m passionate about. But life, I am stuck in life right now. Working a job to support myself and get my life back on a stable track, I do not find the time and energy to put into music. However, this problem is temporary. The bigger problem is how. How do I make it to a singer or songwriter in the industry?

The path isn’t clear, and the steps aren’t defined. I am just gonna have to try and explore. And I will, because I know living without passion is like watching a boring drama series.
