"Inspired" by Dreams' Interpretation.

What called me to be a midwife??

As a child, I was always very open, compassionate, mature (for my age), intelligent, and "different". I always knew I wanted to do something for the greater good, something to do with health and children.... or maybe animals. The animal part of the plan didn't play out... my fellow human beings are in dire need... there are many people who stand for the animals.

When I became pregnant with my daughter, at a young age, I had all but forgotten my dreams in my arrogant teen-age world. But my baby girl brought out those dreams again. I marveled at how my body changed, and cringed at those who were always asking "what-ifs" and didn't believe in my young body, soul, and mind. Instead of playing into the trap, I became stronger, more mature, more spiritual. I believed and loved my body, my baby-grower. But, society wore on me, being so young and still somewhat impressionable. I feared my labor and birth. And, as luck would have it, I got the lesser of the two care-providers. My birth was not horrendous, but not the way it *could* have been, had I been wiser and had someone who would share that wisdom with me. After my daughter's birth, I searched for answers. The more I learned, the more I felt my whole being being pulled towards the calling of "midwife".

It is always in my thoughts.. it is a calling, I almost feel like a zealot. It has hit me with the intensity of a religious fanatic. I am young still, and learning more and more everyday. Humility is my latest lesson, and I am glad it came to me so early. If I help one woman to believe in herself, in her body, in her baby.... I will have done what I always dreamed of doing. Making the world a better place.
