I wanted to be a lawyer. Then I wanted to be a politician. Then I wanted to be a writer. Then I wanted to be a professional chess player. Then I wanted to teach ESL. Then I wanted to work with minority languages. Then I wanted to teach ESL. Then I wanted to study second language acquisition.
A random set of life decisions that spans from fourth grade until now and marks changing influences in my life. Looking back, it goes to show that everything depends on what doors God opens and what doors he closes, what influences are strengthened, etc...
I have no set plans for the future and that is OK. I want to enjoy today and do what I can to improve things today. Plans will shape themselves out. Many of my friends are graduating and facing questions about what they will do. Some have it all figured out. If I get to next year and "have it all figured out" I hope that somebody slaps some reality into me and reminds me that all that I know can change in a moment and that is not necessarily a bad thing. All can stay the same, as well, and that is not bad either.
