What did you want to be / do when you grew up?
|
I remember when I was a kid whenever I heard sounds of planes I'd dash out my house and wave at the pilots in the plane. I figured they'll see me one day and land near my house so that we could go for a ride.
My earliest recollection career-wise is of wanting to be a jellyfish. It just seemed like the coolest existence possible - float about, sting people who fuck with you, etc.
It still hurts when I think about all the life choices I've made that curtailed the jellyfish option. *sigh* Boru

I wanted to be an astronaut, I remember telling people I didn't care if I died on the mission.
I loved animals so I wanted to be a farmer until I discovered the farmer doesn't just have lots and lots of pet cows and chickens and he actually has to have them sent away to be killed. After that I wanted to work in a zoo which I still do. I also had dreams of doing a dangerous job like policeman, gangster, serial killer, Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. 
When I was little, I didn't give it any thought. I just wanted to run away a lot.
Now that I'll be 45 in less than two weeks, looking back at my life choices as an adult, I'm glad I became a mom. I'm not proud of some of the other decisions I made, but I'm still here. I'm in school now and that's all that matters, even if it's 24 years late in the making. So, what do I wanna be when I grow up? A wiser adult than I've been. A better mother. A more loving wife and a person who still tries to see that there's good in people even when those people have wronged me.

Quote:I loved animals so I wanted to be a farmer until I discovered the farmer doesn't just have lots and lots of pet cows and chickens and he actually has to have them sent away to be killed. The one thing I always knew I didn't want to be was a farmer. Helping your father restore a cow's prolapsed uterus on your 6th birthday will do that to you. Boru

When I was younger, in my first phase of atheism, I often said I would have been a nun if I had been religious. I'm the contemplative type.
