Last summer, I made a decision. I wasn't happy with my chosen profession. I wanted more out of life. I was in a dead end job... truly, I felt like the years before had been a bit of a waste. I'm not sure exactly when I became displeased but all the same, it happened. I decided that I wanted to go into another field. I wanted to own and operate my own business. I gave it a ton a thought and I also did a bit of soul searching. I realized that if I was going to do this, I was going to do it wholeheartedly. I left my job and began the process of returning to college. I graduate years earlier and I knew that things would be different but I wasn't worried about that, because I'd become accustomed to challenges in life. But once I was there, campus still felt like my home away from home. Sure, there were new professors and students, but they didn't make me feel like an outcast. I was older than most of the students in my classes but the generation gap seemed to have diminished as the weeks passed. I'm glad that I decided to return to college. I'm happier for it. Everyday, I feel blessed because I'm advancing towards my goals. If you want to do something different in life, no matter your age, it's never too late!!! Do your homework as well as some soul searching and step out into the unknown!
