We all think that our hobby and career ae two different things. We are always advised that hobby is only for passing time and should be done in spare time. For career, we are given a list of serious options which result mostly in a corporate job with a fixed month salary. Most of the parents and teachers advise for this thinking that a serious job will provide stability and regular salary to their child and will result in their prosperous life. However, they forget that stability does not come with money or a corporate job but through internal satisfaction of the child about what he is doing. A similar story happened with Krishan. He was doing only fine in his studies ad he was advised by everybody around him to pursue his graduation in a field which can provide him a secured job.
