A beginning or an end?


When we were three or four, our parents always nudged us, regarding what we wanted to become when we grew up...
Our adorably cute answers of course ranged from the President of USA, to the Astronaut probably sitting on the moon right then, or well in my case, a Tooth Fairy with a magic wand....

When we were nine or probably ten, they asked us again...
And surprisingly our answers changed to a wide extent!
Now we wanted to become a rock star, a cowboy, a model or well in my case a Teacher...

And now that we have grown up, the question strangely still remains the same. But this time everyone is search of a serious answer...

Well how about this - "Who the hell knows?"

I learned from someone, that this isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions of life. Rather its the time to make as many mistakes as possible!
Catching the wrong train, reaching the entirely wrong destination and getting stuck there for hours and hours..
Falling in love - as much as anyone can even imagine..
Doing a Major in Philosophy 'cause there is no way to make a career out of that!
Changing your mind, 10,000 times a day,
And then changing it again..
And then changing it bloody once again!
Because nothing on this planet is permanent. Nothing at all!

So lets make as many mistakes as possible, so that, someday in the future, when they again ask us the same question, then we wont have to shoot anything in the darkness by making guesses but till then probably we'll know the answer!

I always wanted to be an astronaut...

And yes, make new mistakes, everyday.

I like what you said. All along I thought that I am going to be a doctor, at least my family made me think that. But THREE years after medschool, I discovered that I'm never supposed to be a doctor!

That is the fun of it all! Make mistakes now so you have no scope for them when you really don't want any of that! Its strange... very strange indeed! (:

I still do not know where I will land up! I just aim to be happy in whatever I do.

P.S: Live life like it's your own baby, love (:

Muchas vocaciones, sueños y pesadillas surgen en la niñez, cuando uno es tan vulnerable. De muchos modos, uno regresa a esa edad: A mi me sucede cuando voy a una libreria, quisiera comprar todo lo que me interesa.

I definitely have changed my major in college and still don't know what I want to be. Life has a way of throwing screwballs at you also. Great post!

I agree that it is important to make mistakes. But the problem with mistakes is that it can cause major problems in our lives. So I believe that we should make mistakes, but of couse, like everything else in life, in moderation. If the mistake does not have a huge toll on our future, then go for it!!!
