I DEFINITELY SMELL A PORK PRODUCT OF SOME KIND

There was a quote I posted earlier by Friedrich von Schiller which said, "Keep true to the dreams of thy youth."

I started thinking back to all the professions I wanted to be when I was a child. The progression went something like this:

Pig Farmer (and why not?!)
Writer
Miniature Golf Course Owner (I even put together a business plan with a model based around selling pop)
Baseball Player
Business Owner (Nothing specific)
Writer/Film Director

I've never had one profession that I felt like HAD to happen. I know some people that at the age of ten knew they were going to be a lawyer. And they became a lawyer. I don't think I've ever had that feeling of destiny before. I'm not so sure it's a bad thing...just how it is.

If you wouldn't mind sharing - when you were a child, what did you want to grow up to be?
