In pursuit of happiness!

Having recently quit my job as a junior doctor, I am presently very happy as I have all the time to myself. It was difficult to convince my husband more than anybody. I am not sure whether my decision was right or wrong but I thought when I am not happy to work and not so worried about my financial status why not pursue something which I like. Obviously it is not that I like to sit idle. But imagine, why should somebody not reconsider their situation and workprofile. As a junior doctor in NHS, we have to either renew our contracts or find a new job every 6 months to 1 year, how stressful is that? In between you have update your cv by doing audit/Paper-Case presentations to grab attention of the medical staffing. Our whole life is about career and patients. 27yrs old, I don't think I have achieved anyhting so far. I cannot think of anything which would make me feel proud of myslef. I have been carried away by the usual 10th - Intermediate- EAMCET- Medicine and now job hunt.GIVE ME A BREAK. I am ofcourse service oriented and do want to give something back to community, but am I happy? As of now, I am quite happy after I quit the job with no security.Though I am in a huge dilemma wheher to pursue Postgraduation in India or US.
