Help me, Lord. What’s my true blue platform?

I have struggled with this for such a long time and I need input from my followers. What is my platform? I mean, really?

A former homeschool mom teaching special needs kids?

A nontraditional college student?

An author?

A theologian?

Parent of special needs kids (autism)?

History?

I am passionate about so many things? Which one do I choose?
