Is my heart in it?

I have posted about "what next" and I am set to start cosmetology school in February. . . but I have felt torn, as I have mentioned before. Will my heart really be in it? Will I feel satisfied and complete? Will I be happy? I honestly don't know the answer to any of those things. I have been constantly thinking about a casting post I saw a few weeks ago. I can't stop thinking about it. It was a notice for an internship for an acting/casting company based here in Norman. They cast most of the acting work for surrounding areas including Dallas. It would be a 'no pay' deal. . .but I am getting used to those. Unfortunately that tends to come hand in hand with acting :) I just can't leave that opportunity unexplored, so I sent off a cover letter and resume tonight. I should hear back from them with plenty of time to know whether I will continue with my current plan of cosmetology. I just know I must consider the possibility that this would be a great opportunity and I should not pass it up. It could open the right doors for me here, or at least allow me to learn a new perspective and insight to the flipside of casting.

I have my hesitations with cosmetology. The main concern of course is my precious cargo getting damaged by the chemicals used in that profession. Along with concerns of working and losing my medicare benefits. I have already shown a track record of NO INCOME from acting. lol. But this doesn't mean cosmetology is ruled out. I do have two things I enjoy very much one is obviously acting/performing and the other is HAIR.

So I will leave this one up to God. I don't know what he has planned for me, I do know that he will help me do whatever will make me happy. I always know when I have made a good choice. It's hard to explain, but I just know.

My heart and soul and hopes and dreams all belong to Acting. . .I can't explain it, but that is where my heart truly belongs. So I would be going against myself if I didn't at least consider this option.

My Testimony

It's hard to put into words how I feel toward my Heavenly Father and the Savior. I have so many reasons to be thankful for what I have gone through & endured. Because of my trials in life I have gained a strong testimony of Faith. I have always had Faith in the Lord and in Prayer. As I faced the decision to get a double lung transplant I had to rely on faith to make the choice.....By listening to the spirit, I was guided to Pittsburgh where my life was saved. I believe prayers are answered. I have always tried to follow the philosophy of this: If I do what the Lord expects of me, he will give me what I want & need. That has always worked for me. I Believe in MIRACLES..........My life on this earth is a miracle- I prayed on my knees for years to be healed from my lung disease. I knew that through a priesthood blessing (if it was God's will) I could be healed. So many times I thought he would heal me instantly...my faith was tested as I continued to get sick and no cure was in my future. I turned to prayer....I talked to my Heavenly Father, I cried to him and he heard me and he healed me by guiding me to Pittsburgh and guiding the surgeons hands. I learned humility, and thankfulness. I realized that we need others to lean on and we are supposed to strengthen each others testimonies. I learned that the hardest things we'll do are usually the greatest blessings in our life. I was able to experience a lot of things during surgery and I know I had comforting angels in my ICU room. THe Lord knows each of us by name and he will never leave our side. We need to remember to stay close to him and have Faith that he is watching over us. I know this for a fact! I know that following the gospel will bring us true happiness- the world will tell us otherwise, but I know I am truely happy & living the gospel has brought me that. Amen
