Her name was Sarah, and she had always been an avid reader.

Ever since she was a child, she would spend

hours lost in the pages of her favorite books, transported to different worlds and times. As she grew older,
her love for literature only intensified, and she found herself drawn to the study of language and
storytelling. But despite her passion, Sarah never considered pursuing literature as a career. She had been
told time and time again that the humanities were a dead end, that there was no money or job security to
be found in such a field. So, when it came time for her to choose a major in college, she settled on a
practical choice: business. For a while, Sarah tried to convince herself that she was happy with her
decision. She threw herself into her studies, pouring over spreadsheets and balance sheets, and even
managed to land an internship at a big accounting firm. But no matter how hard she worked; she couldn't
shake the feeling that something was missing.

It wasn't until her junior year that Sarah finally had her epiphany. She was taking a required literature
course as an elective, and as she read through the assigned texts, something clicked. She realized that the
stories she had always loved weren't just entertainment - they were a window into the human experience,
a way to connect with people from different times and places.

As the semester went on, Sarah found herself devouring every assigned book, participating eagerly in class
discussions, and even staying up late to read ahead. She had finally found something that made her feel
alive, something that made her excited to wake up in the morning.

But even as she fell in love with literature, Sarah couldn't ignore the nagging voice in the back of her head.
What about job prospects? What about paying off her student loans? She knew that pursuing a degree in
literature was a risky move, especially in a world where STEM fields were so highly valued.

Still, Sarah couldn't shake the feeling that this was what she was meant to do. She began talking to her
professors, asking for advice and guidance, and was surprised to find that many of them were more
supportive than she had expected. They told her that studying literature wasn't just about reading books -
it was about learning critical thinking skills, honing her writing abilities, and gaining a deep
understanding of the human experience. These were skills that could be applied to any number of careers,
from journalism to marketing to education.

With their encouragement, Sarah decided to take the leap. She switched her major to English literature
and threw herself into her studies with renewed passion. She read voraciously, wrote constantly, and even
began submitting her work to literary magazines and contests.

It wasn't always easy - there were times when Sarah felt overwhelmed or wondered if she had made a
mistake. But every time she picked up a new book or had a thought-provoking discussion in class, she
knew that she was exactly where she was supposed to be.

As she approached graduation, Sarah felt a sense of anticipation mixed with anxiety. She knew that the
job market was tough, especially for humanities majors, but she was determined to make a career out of
her passion. She applied to internships, reached out to alumni in her field, and even took on freelance
writing gigs to build her portfolio.

And then, one day, it happened. Sarah received an email from a publishing company, offering her a job as
an editorial assistant. She couldn't believe it - after all the doubts and uncertainty, she had landed her
dream job.

As she started her new position,
