I am FORUNATE in that I too get paid for doing what I love. And while this does not make every day a joyous festival of candyfloss and giggles, it does make the hard days seem more worth it. My good fortune has never caused me to undervalue the sacrifices of others, or to ever say that I shouldn't be paid for what I or others do. Someone gets paid for doing everything after all, so if someone is getting paid for this thing why not me?
