more choices

I've realized recently that the major I picked, English with an emphasis on secondary Education, may not be what I really want to major in. I though about it and I realized that although I like English, and wouldn't mind being a teacher, the real reason I chose it is because it would be an easy degree for me to get. I don't know for certain what I DO want to major in, but psychology has come up before, so I've decided to at least give it a thought. The more I've thought about it, the more it makes sense. I like studying people, and I like hearing their stories. The fact that all, or many of my friends, have serious problems and that I've been through some things that weren't particularly easy either(although, granted, no where near what they went through)how I'm finally dealing with it, and my desire to help people also seems to point me in that direction. The fact that these people seem to be drawn to me(well, me to them too, but still, we become friends, and then they tell me their problems)kinda makes me think. The fact that I've survived in tact, and not too depressed, or otherwise pulled down, by the fact that these people are some of my closest friends means, to me, that I have a certain strength in that area. I don't know, but it just seems like it might be worth looking into. For now, I'm gonna stick with the classes and major I have, just so I don't wind up with no major, and no classes(or too few, a problem either way). But prayer for me as I decide and check this out would be greatly appreciated. :)
