Life's Biggest Questions

I am 21, probably struggling with the same things that you are struggling with right now. None of us is so different than the other.. right? Well, I feel like I have a quality that few hold. I know I'm not the only one, but I don't know many others like me in this aspect. Except my mother.

I want to do everything. I want to do way too much with my life, but I can't help but want to do all of those things. You may be thinking that isn't so different from yourself, but have you settled on a major? When I ask that question, I am talking to the people who at least graduated in 007. (yes... double-oh-seven) Well? Most of you have at least narrowed it down to one university I'm sure. I, on the other hand, have been to a total of 4 universities AND I've attended 6 months of cosmetology school and quit. I STILL have no major, no degree, nothing that says I've learned anything. And I STILL don't know what I want to do with my life.

My father feels like I need a career that's going to support myself and my children if we get a divorce.. sounds like dad has a lot of faith in me huh? Well, guess what? I found a great guy who will take care of me and my kids if we have any-I'm sure of it. So, even though I am not entirely sure what I want to do with college. I know what will be important in my life in a couple years. Family. Love. etc..

so, does it really matter that I haven't found my niche? I have too many! I could be an art teacher, a coach, a radiologist, a cook.. anything! So, I am just going to follow my heart and my dreams and stop beating myself up so much about not knowing where I will be career wise in a couple years. I decided that I just don't have to know. And, that.. that makes me very happy.
