People say that you have to roll with the punches in life and i have never understood that more than in these past few weeks. Blessings come in all sorts of disguised packages. Ever since being back home my life seems to have taken some crazy twists and turns. Many of the plans i had in place before i left on my trip have suddenly lost their appeal. For awhile i have been planning on staying home to save money and attend Mt. Hood Community College. I thought i could take some random classes until i would start cosmetology school in the winter.
This has been the plan for about six months now and i never got fully invested or excited about it. I think that women that choose this profession are just as smart as the next but i have always had higher expectations of myself. Each time somebody would ask my plans for the future i felt like i needed to justify the fact that i wanted to be just a "hairdresser." My reasoning behind my decision stemmed from my desire to help people, talk to women and influence them in a positive way. Part of me feels like i choose this because it was the easy way out and i wanted to have some direction in my life.
Taking time off school last spring made me feel really lost in what my calling is. Im trusting that God will direct me in my journey as i completely changed my major and my classes got much harder. Im learning that the easy way out, although quicker will not always lead to happiness in the long run. At this point i have chosen to take classes going towards a business/advertising degree. My brain does not think mathematically but im hoping to go more into the public side of things. Im just taking one day at a time and trusting that it's good enough
