Bad ambition?No ambition?No problem!

I'll get right to the title, as I'm sure you're wondering what the hell it's about. I pose to you, good readers of my blog, this question: Is it right to leave someone for having no ambition? My thoughts on it? Yes. But lets not make any hasty decisions just yet. Lets think about this for a sec. How much does your partner's goals (or the lack thereof) play a part in your life? I mean, if you're going to make it (whatever "it" may be) and you're going places in life is your success really contingent upon the path your partner takes? Truth be told, if you're really about your business then no; your success in life is definitely determined by you and only you. So what is the big hang-up about having goals in life and ACTUALLY trying to achieve them? Well, I like to think in terms of networking events (a particularly strange thing since I'm not exactly the networking type). If I'm somewhere and I'm asked what I do, my response will be "." Now, if the person then asks what does my significant other do (be it a wife, girlfriend or just the chick I'm putting the pipe to that makes for a good date every now and then), I shouldn't have to have that befuddled look on my face that if it were interpreted into words, it'd be something like "oh shit! Uhhh..." How about the simple fact that two people should be on the same page? I don't know of anyone who is all for the idea of one person working hard and the other hardly working. If I'm going through the struggle on the long road to progress then damnit, you should be there with me and I, with you! As a black man, as a man, as a citizen of a capitalist nation, and as a denizen of money makin' NY, I cannot afford to not be complacent. I say all that to say this: Always strive for more,folks. Be a goal digger; not a gold digger *(c)C.Maree* If you opt not to, you're not alone. Grab a seat on your nearest couch and find solace in the fact that you get a complimentary mug.
