    i think its more because people are going into medicine because mommy and daddy want them to, then they wake up at 35 and realize they hate their job.
    but remember that, even when those who move you be kings or men of power, your soul is in your keeping alone. When you stand before God you cannot say "but I was told by others to do thus" or that "virtue was not convenient at the time." This will not suffice. Remember that.

    That must be absolutely miserable. I love my job, and I have days where I come home wondering why the heck I am doing what I'm doing. If I didn't like it, I'd jump off a bridge.
