I do have to wonder about things such as Ryan Higa.
Many people might recognize the name--he was famous for having a song on YouTube about how "Nice Guys Finish Last" that talks about how women only date bad guys, so the guys in the video all start taking classes on how to treat women badly.
He has an insanely popular YouTube channel, and I was reading that he had originally been studying nuclear medicine, but decided he wanted to make a career out of making YouTube videos instead.
Things like this make me wonder what God thinks of situations like this--does the world need more doctors, or does it need more YouTube stars? Then again, just because he was studying the field doesn't mean he was cut out for it.
Once upon a time, I was studying to be a criminal psychologist. However, looking back, I'm pretty sure that even if I would have made it, I would have burned out in 6 months. Even with my preliminary studies, I was getting frustrated by all the red tape thrown out by insurance companies and political correctness. I couldn't stand it when some of the people I encountered who had broken the law thought it was everyone else who had done wrong, not them, and the world owed them some kind of retribution on a silver platter.
And so, I just have a simple little job that most guys would pass over as just a nobody wasting her life away. I remember the engineer who looked at me with pity when we talked about our jobs. And I'm definitely not someone who attracts lawyers, doctors, CEO's, or anyone with a prestigious career.
But, I'm fairly satisfied with where I'm at, and hopefully will find someone who would take the chance to get to know me and maybe even think that I just might potentially have a lot to offer.
