Hi,my mom sent me this article to read. I ndeeed to read it. Its everything thats been going on in my head for awhile now. In short, Im currently unemployed, not married, not even dating and without children. I always thought by this time I’d have those things. I have been watching my life go by while others enjoy things Ive envied wether its travel or having a family or the career that makes them happy. Im jealous of a friend who currently moved to Korea to fulfill a teaching career. Though I do not envy her lifestyle, I wish I had the oppurtunity. I have spent the past 8 mos trying to decide what makes me happy and have been exploring more of my passions. (I’m a pastry chef) Even though I am jobless I devote all my time to kids and my church. I eat sleep and breathe my church activites. I have decided to start writing again to perhaps finally get one of my books published. Many have put me down throughout my life, teachers, friends, co-workers with the explination that Ill never make it. Ive heard it so long I gave up on film and acting, my writing, and other dreams I had. Now that I have the time to explore things more I am hoping that God will open the door for me. I feel like that its a big part of me right now that needs to be fulfilled. I spend so much time deciding what I should do like others, that I dont do for myself. Thank You for writing this. Im going to print it out and keep it to refer back too when Im feeling blue.
