are you living your dream? or are you at least on the right track?

i've always wanted to be an animator but as with a lot of people, i opted for stability/security and went for a job in a bank after i graduated. to be honest, i wasn't even sure about what i wanted to do just yet, but the job sort of fell into my lap. this year i finally quit my job. while i was only contemplating my resignation, my parents keep telling me to apply for a job at a different bank, but i didn't feel like i wanted a bank job again. so, i told my parents that i i would instead like to study or take time to hone my design skills. i'm happy that they are supportive of my decision (although my dad sometimes forgets what we talked about and would tell me to apply for a job at some company lol) this coming october, i'm finally going to "formally" learn 3D computer animation, something i've always wanted to do for a long time. i know i'm not quite there yet, but at least i'm taking steps and working towards fulfilling my dream. if it doesn't work out, i don't think i would regret it, because at least i tried. actually there are quite a few things that i'd wanted to do but was just too "safe" to try, and now i regret not trying them. what about you? would you say that you're living your dream right now? if not, are you at least on the right track?
