As a girl growing up in Upstate New York, I was an artist, a musician, an actor and a writer.  In college I majored in nursing because my parents thought it was a good profession for a woman, but all the time I was dreaming of a more creative life.  After graduation, I went on to live my parents’ dream by becoming a nurse, but I also followed my own dream by moving to New York City, which in my view was the center of the creative world.  During the thirty years I have lived in New York, I have earned three graduate degrees, in nursing, law and acupuncture, and have practiced all three professions, and I have studied singing, acting, fashion design, interior design and jewelry design.  Today, I am a healing artist working as an acupuncturist in private practice in New York.  Because I have had such a varied professional life, people always ask me things like, “When are you going to decide what you want to be?”  My answer is, “Never! I have no plans to stop dreaming, so I expect to keep growing and blooming in new and unexpected ways.”           &lt;br /&gt;Melissa Meyers, M.A., R.N., J.D., M.S., L.Ac.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/31942518-115471537387088619?l=latebloomerinc.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://latebloomerinc.blogspot.com/feeds/115471537387088619/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=31942518&amp;postID=115471537387088619' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31942518/posts/default/115471537387088619'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/31942518/posts/default/115471537387088619'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://latebloomerinc.blogspot.com/2006/08/i-always-thought-of-myself-as-work-in.html' title=''/><author><name>Late Bloomer, Inc.</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10968008959007333168</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31942518.post-115446567198469710</id><published>2006-08-01T13:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2006-08-01T13:54:31.990-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.latebloomerinc.blogspot.com/"&gt;Late Bloomer, Inc.
