What was your dream?

I went through several phases as a kid, wanting to be different things. For a long while when I was very little I wanted to be an astronaut. But I had the idea that astronauts went to alien planets and discovered strange new plants and animals as well as talking aliens like in the books I read. I thought they zoomed around in spaceships in foreign solar systems and brought back animals and plants to be examined. It was very silly, but I was just a little kid. Later I wanted to be a harp player or a writer.

world peace, lol... I've always wanted to become a writer and I did turn into one (I've been published in magazines, newspapers, and anthologies), but the thing is I didn't study to be a writer (because I thought either you are or you aren't) and just took up languages, which I thought would help me in my writing. Now, I wish that I had studied it so I wouldn't feel so insecure about my work. There's still time though (time, yeah; money, no).

My dream is to be a musician but I've also had another dream that I recently added and that's to also be a chemist. Because music can help benefit people by helping them get through the tasks in life that would normally be boring and giving them something to listen to or distract them from the meaningless task they are doing. And chemistry could help benefit people that are sick or need some kind of healing.

I have many dreams and I am good dreamer too. When I was in childhood my dream is to invent some thing new and innovative. Later I done with many things and went through many channels. Now I dream about to start a organization of creative Ideas.. where every one is benefited and helped a lot. Hope this will come true soon.

Right now I'm happy with my life because I already achieve maybe my dreams. When was kid I said to my self that I want to be a soccer a player someday but when I grow up my dream to become a soccer player was change because maybe I learn more in life that being a soccer player in not what I really want. After that when I was in high skul that is the when I said to my self that I want to be an engineer particular computer engineer. After my graduation in college I took up my dream course which is computer engineer but there is a time in my life were I was not contented in my chosen course so I have decided to shift to another course which electonics and communication engineer(ECE) because I think it is a challenging course. But I always says I am ECE in profession but computer engineer by heart,hehehehehehehe, but that is true.

in my point of view..what ever u want to do please follow this one dream is not what u see in the sleep.........is the thing which does not let u sleep....this grat thing said by abdual kalam sir .....

My dream was to become a successful enterpreneur when I was in the uiniversity. But now my dream is just to become a qualified wife and mom:)

well, i don't know what i shall be yet, and i think i will choose carefully since i read in this discussion that most people are depressed at first then are able to seek the advantage of their job and they start acting positvely to it, but i shall see all the paths of what i can be, and shall choose the best there is, but it's a good thing that you have learned to love your job, anyways, Happy-mYlotting

My dream then is to a professional photographer. But like you dude, i am also an engineer lol i got to love this profession also but it is not yet too late for me to become what i wanted since i am still young. You can still make it lol i love taking picture, may it be a thing or a model (but i prefer models lol!)

Hmm,now I remember when we are at the early age all of us are asked such same question not only once .For myself ,my dream is to have a cozy family to live a common life .Even now I just a student in the campus I look forward to fulfill it somewhat .And i think my dream will come true in store .

Now I'm a mom and take care with my kids and husband. But I'm a college graduate and seeking up for find a job..Talk about my dreams, I rather to always dreams someday I have my own house and successful carrier. Thats why I am satisfied with my own now and having my 2 kids. And also I dream I have my own car and beautiful garage.

I wanted to be a dancer, but to this day I cannot dance. Would I go back and change it knowing what I know now, no it would have only brought on more arthritis problems and more pain faster in my life. I might have missed out on raising my three wonderful daughters. I do find it sad that you speak of what your parents can afford for you, as all of my children have done what they wanted to in school and in life and they had to do it own there own. They are strong women all married to strong men. They knew I did the best I could. They lead happy productive lives and I am so very proud of them. Please be thankful that you parents could do anything for you. It is not alway like that.

I'm dream of being a internet programmer since i gratuated from my junior school.Internet is a good thing with so much challenge.so It's my dream.Aim at it,i will achieve it

since i am only a collage student now , i have little awareness of what i am going to be or where i am going to go. the immediate priority now to me is to work even harder to get an offer from a university in the US to get further education.i am the kind of guy who dont know his career. but as time go by, i think i can figure out the answer to the question.

I remember the very first thing I drew when I was in Kindergarten was a nurse, I was quite good in drawing at an early age lol! But seriously, I really did prefer to draw it when my teacher asked us what we want to be, and I like drawing it cause it's much simpler than the other professions on the chart to choose from. Then I've had changed of mind, shifting from one passion to the other. But I finally found myself as a Registered Nurse now, of which I never imagined, cause I totally forgot about it, and I was just drawn by my friends. However in the long run, I found out I was meant where I am, I get to love my profession so much I thank God He has brought me this far and been ministering to me all along! It has been by vocation, and I can say I'm living a dream! But we don't stop there we always have something new to dream about! Ciao!
