My dearest friend wants to quit her Ph.D. after passing all the prelims, courses and oral exam. This arises the question: who should get a Ph.D. especially in math? What is the meaning/purpose to get it? Of course not everyone can get it even after many years of efforts.
Everybody has a gift/talent given by God and we should discover and use it. It is our purpose in life. And we should be naturally good at it. We need to try our very best but we should be comfortable pursuing it and enjoying it.
Many times we are in the tunnel and cannot see the end and we doubt ourselves: should I continue doing it or quit? Then from outside, someone there should encourage and help us.
What if we just cannot do it? Either we don't have the quality it needs to accomplish the task or we think we are unable to finish it? How to distinguish the two?
After such a long time that she made this decision, Oh, God, what is your purpose? She grows spiritually, but don't you want her to be successful too in her career? Why now? Is it the best time from you? Dear Father, give her wisdom as you gave to Soloman! You love her so much that your only son died for her and gave her eternal hope and life. Nothing is impossible through you. I just pray you give her the very best, not even the second best.
