Oh Boy. What a dilemma.
And I understand this one. Even though I've only been a step-parent, and that for a short time, I came to realize that the greatest travesty I could inflict on those kids was to prevent myself from following my dreams.

The gift I wanted to intill in them was for them to see how essential it is to follow dreams. If I couldn't do that, I would have felt like I'd failed as a step-parent.

I've never been happier and worked harder and found more joy than I have doing what I love to do no matter where it takes me.

I know our circumstances are vastly different and yet I believe our hearts are more similar than perhaps even we are aware.

I hear you and will continue to listen as often as you need an ear...
