I think we as a society put too much weight on outwards status markers like money or cool careers to determine who is successful and who isn't. Perhaps true sucess is being able to love and be kind, or knowing oneself, or being able to see beauty in a flower or the way light falls across the room. People spend so much time hunting the obvious that they leave themselves behind.

That said, if going back to school would make you happy then go for it! Not because you will get an amazing career but because you get to do something you enjoy.

Whatever happens I wish you good luck! I'll keep you and your family in my thoughts.
