What to do, what to do..

I do not know what exactly I want to do when I grow up and graduate college. There are so many different paths I could take in my life and I do not know which one I should choose. I love so many things in life that it is difficult to choose which one passion I should follow. I could keep on with my degree and become a child life specialist or follow my love of music and go into music recording or follow my love of the outdoors and open a kayak/surf shop on a beach somewhere. Right now the most enticing of the options is the surf shop route.

I know nothing is set in stone and you can always, always change your career later on down the road. Heck, I believe that if you pick a career and you are unhappy, then you almost owe it to yourself to quit and do something that makes you happy. Life is too short to be unhappy, but I know that I will have to provide and make a life for myself also. I know that I have a couple years to decide what I want to do but I am really struggling with not knowing right now. I wish that I felt called to do something and could put my heart into it 100%. I just know that whatever I do in life, I want to love it whole-heartedly. I don't know what plans life has for me, but I am sure going to try and enjoy the ride.

  2. Exactly. I'm a theatre major right now with an emphasis on acting...I would rather be a happy person doing something I love, and maybe waiting tables on the side than go into engineering or something that I would hate.
