THAT IS WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT! Following one's dreams!Kudos to Tosin! I am proud of her!I have a friend who is an Engineer and works with NASA, and loves to do hair!!! She has all sorts of hair gadgets and stuff all over her house. She wants to get a hair license but some of her other professional friends look down on her idea dn discourage her, and I remind her that I am a trained psychologist and a trained IT Network Security Administrator….but I love to sew! Go figure!People should be encouraged to follow their dreams cos that is only where they will find happiness.Someone told me once that when one does what they love to do, then they will never work one day in their life, because they would simply be paid for doing what they already love doing……..Sometimes we forget that those of us that grew up in Nigeria actually read courses that were seen as 'prestigious' or one that our parents wanted or one that 'guaranteed a job as soon as you left school'. and rarely what we have passion and love for!And I say it is never too late to turn around and do what you truly love. What you have total passion for….The rest will fall in place……

Wow. That's the word. Ladybrille i am impressed. Tosin Dekalu is only 31 years old not only that she left a lucrative practice to pursue her dreams and own unique path.She is one hell of a unique woman / lady. Anyway thanks for the feature, Ladybrille.
