tdogg, your words are comforting. I'm struggling with wanting to please them, but I don't know if it's right for me. My heart jumps for SoulForce right now and I feel something of a calling although I'm not sure how to make this into a career.
As far as nursing, I do love nursing. I did an internship at a hospital in high school and I loved it. I think it's something I would enjoy doing. At the same time, I feel like I want to help other people and make a big difference. When I'm leading or teaching, especially with GLBT issues, it just feels right and natural. It feels like that's where I belong, at least at this moment in time. I think I'd be needed both in nursing and in work like SoulForce, but I wouldn't know where to begin a career with things like SoulForce. Maybe a business degree would be smart.
I'll start writing a letter to Mel White.
Thank you, everyone, for giving me such great advice. It's really helping me to hear other people's view.
