Subject: Young Marriage vs. Career
Dear Steve and Shirley, I’m 25 yrs old, have been married for 4 years and we have a 2 year old. I am at a point in my life where I finished college and I want to start my acting career. My husband doesn’t really support my passion for acting. He believes in me, but he feels my career is going to come between us. I recently quit my job at the bank to pursue my dreams full time. It definitely caused a riff in my marriage, not financially, only emotionally. But, I was tired of not following my heart and living for others. My husband also wants to have our 2nd child soon so the kids can grow up close together in age. I do want to be a virtuous wife for my husband, but we’re still young and I’m trying to start my career and follow my dreams. Our marriage is a little rocky from infidelity in the past that we’re still trying to move past. It’s just too much, too fast and I need some help. Should I have my next child so soon and then pick back up on my career, or stay focused for now and have a child later? Steve you know how hard it is to break into this industry. I’m at the point where I am just grinding and trying to focus and balance being a wife and a mom. I know God will never give us more than we can bare, but he also gives us a sound mind to make wise decisions in life. Honestly, I am also hesitant to expand our family because I’m afraid of getting hurt again. I hate having the spirit of confusion… Help! What’s your advice guys?
