Well ... it kinda depends on the what the dream is ... but what brought that on?

converation that I had today with my dad..............

Oh noes.

Well, you're also old enough to know that parents aren't always right. They may have more power to push our buttons, including the dream-crusher one, than anyone else, but they aren't always right.

You did just make me grateful for something. As (truly horrifyingly) dysfunctional as our family is, my parents never discouraged me from any dream I wanted to follow, even when I was considering becoming a nun or single missionary lady. In fact, my father still brings that up every chance he gets. Well, I guess most dads would be fine with their precious little daughters being that way ... forever ... hahaha!

My mom also didn't think much of my wanting to become a hit (wo)man. She said, "I'll pretend I never heard that and don't involve me in anything."

Its a bit more complicated but the short version is that my father and I work together (no I am not the bosses kid that spends money and does nothing, no really I use a dual monitor so I can multi task pretty well) there has always been a dream job that I wanted since I was a kid.  Recently, he asked me about buying out his portion of the business and he basically nothing else would change.  I did not answer him when he asked. 

I did not answer for many reasons, but one big reason I did not is that the dream job may be a closer reality than I thought, but it is still a long shot.  There are other reason, but that is one main one.  So today, after we grabbed lunch to talk about some accounts, we were on our way back in and he said "so you never answered me about buying my portion last week? do you plan to be here in the spring?"  That was followed up with (paraphrased version) " get the job/career out of your head and realize that they wont take you."  That is a lot blunter than what was said but you get the drift.
