Aspiring Actor Stuck in Defense Job: How Can I Pursue Acting?

Ans: Dear

I am extremely sorry to hear about the pain that you are going through, I can feel what it must be to endure all this at such a young age.

While we all want to chase our dreams and passion but then we also need to appreciate our responsibilities. Would suggest you park your dream of becoming an actor for sometime.

Your parents would have had dreams for you and seeing you in pain it must be painful for them One way to assuage their pain is to settle yourself professionally I may sound harsh but let me help you with reality check. At this point trauma of divorce is enough for you...don't get into another one work front.

Rather once you work to keep you busy then you will feel less pain on account of divorce.

Be assured my friend Life will again shower you with sunshine of happiness and goodness.

With lots of love and prayers.
