Your story reminds me of something I have always thought, priorities in life emerge in the moments when duties and dreams conflict, and even if you have to choose, one thing is for sure, you will not regret what you sacrifice, if you choose what you like the most.
My regret was getting a job. A job that cost me every bit of everything. My attention, my time, energy and so much more... But then I just couldn't stay without doing something.
