Escape Route

Many people do not see themselves as a Nine to Five person due to laziness or just a childhood of having everything given to them and spoiled wit all the necessities they needed or simply it can be just pure wanting to do something that they admire with a deep passion.

Some people may watch or read the lifestyles of celebrities, athletes, TV show hosts as a gateway away from their "so-called boring lives" in order to block out any negative or hardship times that are occurring and then some people block out so much of their lives then slowly become trapped in a different reality of realism of to what is going on. I will like to call this a fairytale world an imagination in someone else's shoes. For an example its like when you turn on MTV Cribs and see Dale Earnhardt with 8 to 12 cars in the driveway or Dieon Sanders with a Helicopter and Jet runway in his backyard then you look out of your apartment window and notice there is no car of yours parked on the street then you look up the street and realize your late to work as you see your city bus pass by you. You start to say to yourself "boy o boy" my life sucks lol uh duh WAKE UP! You have a life just like they do and you should appreciate what you have because there is always going to be somebody that is less fortunate than you are. The funny thing about it, is that some of the people you have read or seen who has the life you want, you can have a similar or better life than they do if your hungry enough to work hard and go get what you want in life. Most Important thing is if you cherish the ones you love there will be no problem and having a happy life.

Now that is where I come in YES me Mr. Patrick Young. I grew up playing Football, Baseball and running Track. As I became older I was dedicated to one sport, Football was my gateway away from the streets, wrong crowds and every negative thing in my life. The only thing that had kept me back from playing football was the lack of performance I was putting in the classroom, No matter how good I was or how much I love the game and especially when I have to hear about people saying I'm waisting so much god given talent and ability lol it was always funny to me because yes I was born with a gift to play football but in order to open that gift and use it you have to work hard and become your gift, If you catch my drift.

Now How do you find out what your gift is? If you do not are ready know what it is or have not even a clue to what it is that's because your not getting out there by trying new things and enjoying life. We were put here on this land to be explorers that is why this world is so big with so many things out there for us to do. Now it is never to late to open your gift or several other gifts that you have received in this lifetime. It doesn't matter if your in 40's, 50's, 60's, etc etc etc...Because I believe that whatever gift you may possess is the ability to reach out to others and extend a hand by helping make this world a better place! The best way to explain on how will know what gift you have received is realizing that everybody has received the same gift and that is THE GIFT OF LIFE. Now use that gift! Become that gift! Become anything you want in life and if you find it unreasonable to do so then preach to the young by showing them your mistakes and wrong turns in order for them to be able to make it. Because its start with the old showing the young ones the way and it continues with the young n old inspiring each other around them that anything is possible.

English has been my favorite subject throughout high school. I had no problem and enjoyed procrastinating until the night before to write an English assignment because when I sit down with a pen n paper or simply on a keyboard, I know it will start pouring from my head as if my brain was a search engine itself. Nine to five working for somebody else is a no no for me but its a most! So I believe my Escape Route is to write and write freely, so one day the Nine to Five will be a Nine to Nine! A full-time job of my own profession writing freely.
