As I get ready for my day of work at the salon, I came across this photo and thought about the importance of the message it sends.
There was a time in my life, before the time that I wanted to be a mermaid, that I wanted to be a doctor. I was set for years that this was the path I was going to take. When I got into my 11th year in high school I then realized that that was not what I wanted for my life. I wanted to travel the world and be home if need be. The life of a doctor is one of stress and responsibility. I wanted a different life. A life of exploration and new experiences. (Not that a doctor cannot obtain those things..) So when the time came to send off my university courses, something in my gut told me not to. So, I didnt. I took 6 months off and really focused on what makes me happy. I discovered that the beauty/fashion industry is where I belong.
So when I read this photo, I felt a sense of happiness and contentment. I did the right thing by going with my gut. I hope everyone is doing something that brings them joy because if it does, it doesnt even feel like work. And that is a blessing. Xo
