OPPINIONS PLEASE!
Ok, so everyone, i kinda need ur oppinion on this. A few weeks ago, my sister, Diana, and i watched a lifetime movie about these two women that own a "village" for abused children. After seeing what those kids have gone through (it was all a true story), if really touched me, and made me think that i may like to change what i want to do. I mean for the past 5 years i've wanted to be a chef, and before that it was a vet (but that changed soon after my grandmother died). When i wanted to be a vet, my grandmother did everything she could to help me learn about what it's like to be a vet. she took me to the A&M vet school for this walk through type thing, where u take a stuffed animal that's sick, and the vets take care of it. After she died, i changed my mind, and i'm not exactly sure why. Then when i decided i wanted to be a chef, i think it had to do only with that fact that i enjoy cooking. I've always that that i work best under pressure, but lately, i've been put under so much pressure... well there've been alot of things goign through my mind, and i can't handle it. So, now i've considering pediatric psychology, and then going to work for this company "ChildHelp USA", the one that was featured in the movie. It's a great organization that takes care of the kids. I love the kids. Teaching wise though, i don't think i could handle any younger that like 8 or 9. I don't know, but soon i will be filling out college applications, and i need to know what i should do. I just don't know anymore. Now, i'm even thinking i may not want to go all the way to new york yet either. I've kinda been considering staying in texas (but i'm not going to A&M). I know i know, this goes against everything i've been working towards for years, but i dunno anymore. so just please give me your thoughts on this, and let me know if u think of any other fields of study i might need to think about. thanks!!! .:*Suzy*:.

Hey, you know we are behind you, no matter what! And it's completely okay to change your mind.
TRUST ME! It happens. I think that sometimes it gets really difficult to figure out what we want to do because no job in the world can encompass all of our interests and talents. The trick is finding out which one God intends to use as a career. Beyond that, I don't know what to tell you. As someone who is going through the confusion of life-choices, I have not a single tip to make it easier. Some days, I wake up almost depressed because I feel like there is no direction in my life and my goals are unattainable. Those days are the ones spent in one long conversation with God, begging him to reassure me. He always does and even when I don't know where I am going, I feel better knowing that he's in control.
Wow, that was longer than I intended. One last thing. I am reading a book called Understanding God's Will by Kyle Lake. So far, it seems like an excellent book. You might check it out.
thanks!
