Wanting to live without passion

I'm struggling to find a job that pays a living wage without requiring a passion for art

What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew that having a passion wasn't necessary for a stable life"
If I could tell you one thing
"Try to find a job that supports your basic needs, even if it's not your dream job"
