Castrating Animals, Long Live Roquefort, and Rolling Cigars

What Mike Rowe in his conference had also got to me as well. Right now, I'm a student studying at a private college for a dream of being a Chemical Engineer. Yet I acknowledge those who are studying liberal arts to be some kind of a joke. Even more so, those who don't even try to attend college. It is not predominately a bad choice to continue getting an education because of the harsh difficulty of getting a job in the United States. But what I also realized is how we under appreciate those who do things that not only make them happy but also allow us to live easier lifestyles. The presumption of living a dream is interesting to me. We all work hard to do what we want to do but never take a step back and allow ourselves to see if that truly brings happiness upon ourselves. Just like the article of rolling cigars, we don't always choose what we want to do with life, we sometimes allow our passion take us to where we want. We allow society to predestine our roles sometimes and never identify for ourselves where we would like to pursue. The same goes for the Roquefort where she said that it would be difficult to get Roquefort for our the customers but it would also be difficult to allow for us to have a choice. We would allow our government to make the choices for us and not allow what we desire to make those choices in the long run. Restrictions and containment; they both suck.
