Lark's "moment" - the point where she knows she's doing what she was always meant to do - is particularly dramatic. Have you ever experienced a similar realization or epiphany about your chosen vocation?

Lark's colleague talks about having "your moment," the point where a doctor knows they're doing the work they were always meant to do. Lark's "moment" is particularly dramatic, but have you ever experienced a similar realization or epiphany about your chosen vocation?

Oh yes, my epiphany began as a feeling of "this is what I'd rather be doing" with a National Geographic magazine cover decades ago. It took a long time to move past regular careers to support myself to being in the rainforest with wildlife.

My epiphany came while working on a difficult child abuse case as a teacher and realized with the comment of the Psychologist that I might consider counseling. I walk through the door that opened for me and knew it was where I belonged.

Never happened for me, but I wish it had.

No - I questioned if I was in the right job for my entire career!

My epiphany began at the end of my career(s). I was an elementary school teacher for 16yrs. I decided to stay home with my 3 children for a while and did some part-time work. Once the children were older I went back to school and obtained my BSN and became a registered nurse. Several years later my mother became ill and I left nursing to become a teacher/nurse at a vocational school. It was then that I realized that I had come full circle and knew that the course I'd traveled was the one I was always meant to be on.
