Body:
I think we touched on this topic before, but I was looking at some of Jerry Kerr's photographs that he has posted. I love the picture and I am so gald he is doing what he loves. It got me to thinking about how I chose my profession of nursing. I am grateful to be a nurse, but I chose that major because I had changed by major many times and my parents just wanted be to graduate. I started as a Veterinarian major and changed becasue I let the macho men in Texas influence. I started a few others, then decided on teaching. About that time there were not many teaching jobs available. My friend Vicki Smith was going to be a nurse, so I decided to do that, too. I wish I had perservered with veterinary medicine. I wish I had perservered with training horses. I wish I had perservered with dancing. I let my parents and others influence me and I submitted to their ideas. Of course I have hobbies that include these interests and my career as a nurse has been rewarding. I am very happy for people, such as Jerry Kerr with his airforce pilot career and now his Civil Air Patrol career, Peter Shelton with his internally known art career, Ricky Evans with his farming, Greg Campbell with his bowls...I know there are more. Diane Hull-Grant became the Nurse, mother and wife of Eddie Grant, all of which she had and still has a passion. I would like to hear from others about their passions and derailed careers. Gail
