Think about this as a calling. Not everyone will last as a
priest. The same holds true with all other professions like
being a doctor, teacher or a writer. This is the same notion
that you must think about as a military personnel. No one
has the right to force you to join it, especially for wrong
reasons. There are people who join the military thinking
that at least, this is a stable job where they can raise
their families. But more than the monetary aspect, you must
make sure that you can last in this field.
