It's great that you discovered you passion early. I majored in law...Yeah, that sucked. But my heart knew where I needed to be- my brain just needed to catch up.

My hubby complains sometimes but he is pretty much on board with it...he knows this is very serious for me.

My father supported my writing, but with the proviso that I get a 'proper job'. Now, my husband believes in me completely and is a great sounding board.

My mother started to teach me how to read when I was four years old. Growing up, I always created stories which possessed as much fantasy and myth as possible. <br /><br />I feel like the only time I didn't stay true to my heart was in college when I decided to major in Business. Everyone lectured me about how finance and marketing were where the money was to be made. I spent two years dedicated toward this major and hated every moment of it. It was right before I began my junior year that I brought my minor, which was English at the time, up to my major. As I began a new journey, I started to excel in all of my classes. My only regret is that I didn't do this in the first place and double major in Journalism as well.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing this, Dawn! I can't stress it enough how important it is for each and everyone of us to stay true to our passions and dreams.

Never too late to keep going either. :) Even though there were few people who gave me the impression I was over-ambitious when they knew I was writing, most of the discouragements actually came from myself while encouragements came from fellow-writers/readers and my sisters.
