I am going to look into volunteering at a local fire station. I think that is a great idea.

I will not help her or support her and if she really wants it she will find a way to do it. I have to say something to her cause I can’t continue to listen to her while we are at our moms house talk about this. I hope that life teach her a lesson and one day she learns to follow her inner voice and become a person she will truly be happy with.

We even live less than 2 miles from each other. She calls me sometimes to talk about herself and I listen to be polite. So in that sense we are close.

She acts as if what people say about her or to her is completely untrue. So I know if I bring this up her she will act like I am lying. When I asked her why she all of a sudden wanted to be a firefighter she said it has always been her dream to either be a firefighter, a cop or a piolet. I have never heard her say anything about these professions. I just know that the conversion will be pointless because she can never see her wrong and how it is affecting other.

I will inject this truth serum into her and tell her what she is doing is deeply bothering me. It is bothering me because she has always wantes to be a piolet but doesn’t want to put in the work to achieve such an awesome career. The fact the she is saying that she always wanted to be a firefighter is annoying my soul. I have become content with putting it on hold. My city allow the public to sign up every 3 year by that time my daughter will be 6 and I will be 28 I will be able to have her enrolled in school and after school care until my fiance can pick her up. My sister is driving me crazy because she wants me to get her the application, help her study, show her where fire academy is ect. I just feel if she really wanted this she would be able to fiND public information the same way I did. Also, when I asked her why she wanted that career she said and I quote ” to look at the sexy firefighters”. She doesn’t give me any advice or support when I explain my dilemma to her. She just changes the subject back to herself. I have learned a valuable lesson which is to achieve my goals in silence. I have never received support or inspiration from her so there is no point in letting her know what I am achieving.
