How did you find your calling in life? Florence Nightingale knew at a very young age she was being called as a nurse. Her family was not supportive and felt it to be beneath her station in life as a debutante in a wealthy and privileged society. She volunteered to work in a hospital to explore her dream. But her family bullied and punished her every step of the way. Struggling to make the most important decision of her life, she wrote to Dr. Samuel G. Howe asking for advice. He responded by saying, “…if you have a vocation for that way of life, act up to your inspiration and you will find there is never anything unbecoming or unladylike in doing your duty for the good of others. Choose, go on with it, wherever it may lead you.”
