'To be or not to be...'

I was mulling over life with a friend the other day and it made me think of a career path i could've taken but didn't and i thought i'd let you in on the secret.

I auditioned for a private, Christian university called Wesley Institute. It's a University that specialises in the performing arts such as acting, music and the arts. I auditioned for acting, being the drama queen that i seem to labelled as. I had auditioned for acting at two other uni's (excluding NIDA, i wouldn't study there if ya paid me!) and had got knocked back both times so when i auditioned for Wesley it was a dream come true and not something i was quite expecting when i received the letter of acceptance to study at the university.

Unfortunately for me though, the fees were huge and HECS wasn't an option because it was a private University and so i declined the offer and trudged my way through life to where i am today.

Had i have studied there and graduated, this year 2005 would've been my first year as a drama teacher in high schools as 2004 would've been my graduating year. It is a scary thought teaching high schoolers what i learnt myself.

But it's not the path i walked down and i am not a teacher. But the path God is leading me down now, no matter how opposite it is to where i thought i would end up, is where God wants me to be and his purpose for my life will in fact be much more impacting and have much more of a fulfilling purpose then i ever imagined, one which i will try continuously to pursue no matter how many times i stumble and fall.
