Passion and privilege

     I see the relationship between passion and privilege going in two different directions. Someone with more privilege has more resources to live out their passion, whatever it may be, while someone with less privilege may have to work longer to achieve the same goal. Even though someone's passion may not need money or schooling to live out,a person with privilege may have less to worry about, they might not have to drop everything and get a job like someone from a poorer background. Less pressure is on someone when there is less to lose. Your whole life you are told that you can be anything you want but soon as you become an adult you are told that you need to start being realistic, people get a job that doesn't really appeal to them but, the money is good and it shows people that they're doing something with their life, so they stay for a while then next thing they know it's 25 years later.
     "I got my insurance license when I was 21 because I wanted to make sure that people thought that I was gonna do something . I thought that you know uh putting on a suit and having this license would make me some kind of adult." Without passion, life wouldn't be worth living. Everything is driven by a person's passion. It may not be the job they're at or the classes being taken but, it might be the children they are providing for, their family might be their passion. One example of passion are the artist of the world. Most artist do their work out of passion and just want to satisfaction of other people's recognition. Money will come if it's suppose to but, all the artist is in control of is the quality of their work.It's easier now for the artist to share their work with people all across the world, in the age on the internet musicians can upload their songs to Soundcloud, others can comment and add to it, Photographers ,Illustrators and Visual artist can post their work on Tumbler and art blogs and Comedians can post videos on Youtube, and all of this is free and the people that post do this out of their passion. The Internet doesn't discriminate against any race, sex or class. The Internet is one of the last place where you can live out your passion without much privilege, almost everything on the internet can be downloaded for free and anything can be uploaded to be to shared for free.
