Lately i have been reminscing about my life.I will turn 40 soon and it has me contemplating about my path so far and he journey that is to come.With that in mind..i was curious if this has been anyone elses experience too.Albeit cause of age or divorce,etc.

What are you doing now vs where or what you would prefer to be doing going forward?

NOW: I'm an insurance Agent

Later:I want to be a Writer.I would love to write childrens books/and or a published book of poetry.
I also want to work with youth/children in some capacity.

I am a project coordinator for a landscape architectural firm. I have an accounting degree. This is my second divorce and I am really struggling with what I want to do the rest of my life. I've got 10 years on you savery. so I think any time you have a life changing experience, it makes you question your goals, your life in general.

I think I want to be a campground host........or work in a greenhouse playing in the dirt.

Lovesuks, you are a funny guy. I love it. I still haven't decided what I want to be when I grow up. I was thinking maybe a candy maker or a beer taster.

I want to go into Human Resouces, then get my Masters Degree in HR, work it for a little while, perhaps take an online teaching position while traveling the country, and when I'm 95 (I think that's grown up) I want to jump out of a plane with a parachute.

Onmyown: Of course your right..transitional things do lead to re-evaluation.

Camp Counselor leading to Director would be AWESOME! :)

Im with SC.. not growing up...nope.. not going to happen.. YOU CAN NOT MAKE ME!

nope.

PostNote: My Ex use to tell the kids to grow up and take on jobs around the house to help him.. I mean.. heavy duties and responsiblities.. kinda nuts...well it really stressed them out a lot.

They were ages 4, 5, 10.. I told them that they had one job right now:

Have Fun and Be a Kid...
and that is our mantra.

Wow, this is good. I don't wanna grow up. I really don't want to become one of the people that becomes the living dead and is content with things as they are. I want to travel, I want to finish with school, work with children, I would love to write a book also. The sky is the limit.

I have a freaking PhD but I want to be a Chippendale dancer, but I'm too short. Maybe there is the 'not quite little people version'... like grumpy, happy, sleepy... and Sexy!

Yes, I want to dance at Bachelorette parties!

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
