Found my (right) path after all these years

[Revolutionary Think]

So after years of being angry at the "job market" for not getting what I deserve... I finally managed to get on the crew of Mars Academy USA mission 1115. How this journey started was at the National Space Societies (NSS) convention called the International Space Development Conference (ISDC) that I volunteered at about a month ago. So while I was there I over heard a conversation about 3D printing and I decided to get involved the lady there Susan said she was a part of something called Mars Academy and gave me her card and invited me to come see the 3D printers. So I emailed her a week after and didn't here back after two weeks after. Then even after her email back still nothing for another week or two. Until one day the Space Steering Committee which I am a part of had someone by the name of Bill on the telephone conference and he was in contact with Susan and Susan was supposed to talk to him. I found an alternate email Susan had used to get in touch with Bill I sent an email to that one. She responded and asked for a cover letter and resume. Turns out she was so blown away from the cover letter I had wrote (and mind you this cover letter was just a template for another job I had applied to) that she wanted me on the next analog Mars Mission in Vasquez Canyon Rocks. She told me that normally people have to pay a $1,300 participation fee but, she waived it especially for me and also they didn't exactly start people on these analog missions so fast but, they are fast tracking my internship process.

Next thing I know after further correspondence with her and a Skype video interview she invites me to her house in the valley. We kind of get to know each other on a more intimate friendship level. Turns out we have a lot in common she talks about her past and I talk about my past. We both speak about how some elements of our families and societies found us a little weird and eccentric. She shares stories about her father and how her Hong Kong father fought along the side of the English against the Japanese. She brings out the 3D printer and we tinker around with it a little bit. Her son comes home it turns out that her son is an Engineer  who loves video games science and technology just like I do. I keep Tinkering with the 3D printing software to get it to finally work and make something. She is impressed while the 3D printer is making something she brings a flightsuit for me to wear and takes my picture with it around the 3D printers and I make the live long and prosper sign from Star Trek. She also takes pictures of the things I've 3D printer and last but, not least I give her a demonstration of my 3D pen and she is impressed. She gives me both the 3D printers to take home and tells me she can email over some files I can work on before the mission starts. I say thank you we had a great time and I go home happy. So if I can get myself embedded with this program and among these people my years of wondering in the job hunting desert are over and I'll be one step closer to achieving my life purpose.

And whats your life purpose exactly?

[Revolutionary Think]

To inspire people to take action for justice by speaking. So being a public speaker that talks about what we can do to live in a better less miserable world.

I am happy to hear! May you continue to be blessed in finding peace in your Journey. By skimming through the Mars Academy it appears to some form of un-orthodox private school of some sort of mixture of orange and green.

@Lorcan Wrong Mars Academy. I think you stumbled upon the Mars Academy elementary school. This mars academy is Mars Academy USA it's Analog Astronaut training.

just a simple warning... hypocrisy is, by far, the biggest trap for those who take the path you're taking.

if you cannot practice what you say, every word will be a new brick as you build the temple that represents your failure.

similarly, if you're able to practice what you say, then be ready for the highest life ever.

i wish you good luck, fortune and wisdom.

@ajasatya I understand for me the biggest injustice is trying to shove something down someone's throat and call it justice. If I have some I idea I think is amazing I must remember that it is I who thinks it's amazing. This purpose is for the people out there who felt like I did in the past I felt like I was suffocating when I was younger because I hardly had anywhere to turn to (except for maybe video games) and hardly anyone I could confide in (except my one best friend). Then as I grew older I tried to little by little force my philosophy on other people and hold anger and resentment against those who didn't get it so that was me building the Temple with those bricks that represented my failure I've already been through that and want nothing of it. I just offer people who feel like there is no where to turn to and who want something better what I think is a better way where they can take it or leave it. Although I think unless they tried it they can't really know I wont be the one to force them to try it either. That's where my beef with the current society comes from because when I was growing up it felt like a lifestyle I didn't like or have passion for was being shoved down my throat by people who thought that "they were doing the right thing) my family and my teachers/education system etc. and I felt so miserable. My philosophy for this justice is that people deserve to be happy because in the grand cosmic scale of things (or at least from what we know) people didn't exactly choose to be born. So this justice is about people finding their true path and not having anything shoved down their throats by family, school, society etc. I will speak power to that philosophy and see how it works out.
