When I was 6, I told my doctor I wanted to become someone like him and save lives. When I was 13, I told my mom I wanted to become a lawyer to defend the innocent and put away the guilty. When I was 18, I wanted to become an English teacher to teach kids that writing gives them a voice. I am currently 20 and have no idea what i'm doing in life. I'm still trying to figure it all out. Life has thrown me so many curve balls that I couldn't catch and fed me so many opportunities that I couldn't seize. I am stuck career wise but I am also grateful for the obstacles given. I realized that doctors don't only save lives but they watch people die everyday. Lawyers don't only defend the innocent but also protect the guilty. English teachers don't only teach kids to speak their mind but also fill their heads with opinions from around the world. I was chasing after careers that I thought would always bring a wholesome feeling. Yes, most of the time they do but to me I didn't see the ugly to them. For as long as I could remember I have always been goal oriented but life has put me at a stump. Maybe this was for me to keep searching, like they say everyone moves at their own pace. I wish I could wake up tomorrow and find that everything is figured out for me. While i'm still growing through this journey and trying to understand why things happen the way they did, I will always be thankful for the beauty I learned through disaster. You can destroy yourself many times but fixing yourself and coming back better has always been my favorite part. I will piece myself back together and make something of myself this year.
