Can't Tell Me Nothin'

The only thing I do not like about having recently graduated college is that EVERYONE seems to have in their minds what I should do with MY life.

"Get a job doing so-and-so, it's the best way to start off, and at least you'll be building your resume.."

"Apply for that job! I know it's not what you want to do - but it pays good!"

"You should start off in sales. No one can go directly into marketing without having been in sales first."

Um. Excuse me?

 I didn't work my butt off for 4 years to be miserable and have a job I do not enjoy. And as for saying I CAN'T get a job in marketing straight off. Can't? Sorry, the word is not in my vocabulary. Not to mention, I have never let anyone else dictate what I am able to accomplish.
I had people try to tell me what I was capable of my whole life and I proved every single one of them wrong.
So I have no problem proving these people wrong who think they can plan out my future for me better than I can.

So, I will just continually pray about the next step.
All other people - back off. God and I have got this on lock.
