My parents work in the health industry. Its often said of nursing that its a calling - nurses say its my profession and although they are passionate and want the best outcomes possible for their patients, at the end of the day its a job which needs to be balanced by other demands in their life.I could be a celibate priest... but I am a better priest for being married and a mother. (And not because I drag my husband into doing some of the work, but in terms of my own maturity and emotional equilibrium).
Well, frankly, there's a really long line of burnt-out pastors that suggests it's a bit more complicated than that.
Do you see any parallels?
