Needing Daddy’s Blessing
When I was accepted into medical school, I think it was the happiest day of my dad’s life. He was so proud of me and that made me sad because at that point, I knew that I absolutely did not want to be a doctor. I enjoyed making people feel better, but I just did not feel that it was my calling in life.
I eventually got up the nerves to tell him that I did not want to be a doctor and after convincing him that I was right, he gave me his blessing to take some massage therapist courses. I convinced him that I would give him a massage every day if he would just give me his blessing.
I did really well in the courses and absolutely loved every single minute of the training. Because of my background in the medical field, I got an amazing job and it is one that I love to get up to go to every morning.
