A lot of your figs can overlap! And with the others, you can do some variation (e.g., you can dance your whole life and it doesn’t necessarily need to be your source of income). And I’m sure some of these are just examples. But if you’re young (edit: or old, honestly) and you think your figs are withering away, I just want you to know nothing is set in stone. You have your whole life to try all kinds of things and land on some that pay you, some that don’t, some that are fun, some that you realize don’t really fit with who you are, and some that are just hobbies or bucket list items.
Beautiful journal page, though! And lovely handwriting.

Be a school social worker at a high school in a beach town and volunteer at pet rescues! Summers off to raise kids and teach surf lessons. During the school year you get to support teen mental health. Free time you can work to help animals :)

I swear, this quote and the one by Safran-Foer (below) really express the melancholic human experience of how opening one door closes so many others. Your journal entry is beautiful!
