I’ve been looking at this for the past few weeks and I feel that when I am older I should act on my love of The Lord. I plan to be a Doctor or at least get some kind of degree in medicine and my Mum agrees with that, but after I’ve done that I want to, if I still feel the calling, become a Nun. Long-story-short my mother doesn’t approve of that, even though she is a Catholic herself and insists on me living life as a Catholic child should. I would understand if I were an only child, but I have an older sister who has a child so I don’t see the problem with me devoting myself to God when I am older. I don’t want to tear my family apart but I feel that these are the right plans for me. What should I do? :confused:
