Is it all worthwhile?

I have been in class for 1 full week and I officially have begun to question why I am there. Well its not the first time I have wondered this its just my first official time this year, I think it may be a record. Life has been so busy and stressful lately with Portland, the new school schedule, the wedding and just trying to keep things going around the house. Have you ever asked yourself why you do what you do? Today I have been thinking about why I even wanted to be an audiologist. Do I like ears?...no. Do I like people?...no. Do I like hospitals?...no. So even though I don't technically have time I wanted to post this; just to see if anyone else contemplates if all their efforts are really worth it. Why do people put all their time and effort into jobs that they end up hating? Could really use some advice/motivation. I know getting a job should be motivating but its not, the job will only produce more bills. Having more bills means needing to get a better job. I'm not sure if any of this makes sense, just let me know if you have days where you don't know what you are doing with your life anymore.

Amy,
Don't you remember what you once said about my work? That you had never met a group of people that were more dedicated to their profession, who loved their work, that spent so much time and effort trying to get leave!

Keep your chin up. One day at a time.....
