"Hey, don't seek any one's approval regarding your life. Not mine,
not any one else's. Your life is for your to live with. It's a state of
mind. It starts with a dream, and, if followed by focus, attention and
hard work, ends up with crystallization of the dream. So dream, focus,
strive hard, get closer to your dream every single moment, then the
universe will conspire to make your dream come true. Don't forget to learn
more about the One that can make your dream come true, the Almighty.
Do good, explore life, be daring, and constantly remember God, Sayang. You'll do Fine."

That was an e-mail I found in my inbox sent to me about 3 years ago from a man whom I respect very much, that believes that I shouldn't be doing what I'm doing right now, and always encourages me to pursue my real passion and dreams.
I got it, I got it. I am living my life more. I dream and focus more, and little by little, I've succeeded to accomplish things that I listed in my "Wish List" I made almost a couple of years ago.
I now believe, that what I do now is only a process to something better. A stepping stone. If I will only be patient, in time, I will finally find my courage to leave this job, which, not I love so much (= hate). It is just a matter of time.
But When? is always the question. Am I done seeking for people's approvals? How much more acknowledgments will I need before I can actually let it go and.. be happy doing something else.
Even though it might not make everyone happy.
Life is too short. Maybe it's time to make myself happy.
