You've always had the flair for writing, for literature, for books, for arts. You are a very brilliant person so naturally you can survive in any class you find yourself - arts, social sciences or pure sciences. Your parents have always being proud of you cause you've always blazed the trail. What parents wouldn't be proud???
In primary school, you were the best student and that saw you going for every competition and winning medals upon medals. When it was time for the "standard living" play, the doctor spot was reserved for you. "Doctors are the smartest people in the world so you are the most suitable for the spot" your teacher had told your mom.
Senior secondary school saw you sashaying effortlessly into the pure science classes, you are a natural, just like Einstein. you made A's with so much swags and ease. Again your teachers, parents, family members, friends and village people said you can't waste your brain laidat you have to study medicine because any other cause is just waste of good brain, this is #InYourBestInterest
Today you are a medical doctor, you can't stomach the sight of blood, you don't have the passion to save lives even though it sounds like a really cool thing, you are simply frustrated, you really hate the job, you are in a fix because the pay is good, I mean really good.
Finally finding your voice and the right words, you say to your mom, "mom, I'm quitting my job." she breaks into a shrill cry and goes on and on about why your shouldn't quit, about the embarrassment your decision would cost you, about how she will no longer be called "mama dokita", about how quitting your unfulfilling job isn't in your best interest, about how every decision she's ever made was only #InYourBestInterest and Yada Yada Yada.
The truth is this, nobody really cares about you, your dreams or your ambitions above their personal interests. Be them parents, siblings, friends, girlfriends or enemies. Their gain maybe only the name, the pride they feel knowing there's someone who does their bidding.
Today, take charge of your life, walk away from everything that doesn't make you happy, find your peace! 😘😘😘
