“The job I want or what I want?”

"I believe in a better world"

Already in my third year of architecture and with only 20 years I was wondering: am I studying this but I really want to work in this? Being sincere in this career they have never taught us how our life would be at work when we leave, they only give us training and tools that in my way of thinking could help me to perform in any future job but also leaving that opportunity to work in what I want. I like that phrase that if there is no job, you invent one, and I think that in some way that is true. In what I'm studying there's like a guideline or a "where to go" in which we're supposed to end up working for big companies or in offices doing who knows what.

If you are not part of the solution you are part of the problem, this is how I think and say how I want to work, if making unworthy housing developments, building malls or roads for millions of dollars, the truth is that I would not do it, a friend told me, would you work in what you do for free? and I doubted, as I would continue my career if I did not want to build a supposed future development, one that continues to impose something unnatural on the territory but now I see it more clearly, I do not want to continue to be part of the problem, but rather who solves it, how can we continue to build in the same way? in which the planet by scientists already has its days numbered. No. I refuse to continue in the same way and it is time to use the education we receive to change, to continue in the same way has led us nowhere, indeed, to perdition. That's why it's time to change the stigma of a dream job, maybe some if they want to follow dreams that have already been fulfilled by others, but I want to follow my true dreams, which instead of creating to generate, create to help, not to invade but to live together, how are we so self-centered as to tell ourselves that we are more than everything around us? I don't know if it's the right thing to do, tell me if you don't see it that way, but I will continue on this path, transforming myself and believing that my dream is to green the planet, just as it once was.
