What Do I Want to Be When I Grow Up?

What a stupid question. You know what I want to be? A dinosaur. Not realistic enough? Um, how about I want to own the Boston Celtics. I mean, who really cares what I want to be? We all want things we don't have. But sometimes what you want takes a backseat while you do what you need in order to get by. That's one of the hardest parts of life - going through day after day, doing things you don't want to do with the hope that someday you can do those things you do want to do. Many times complacency gets the best of us and we find a certain comfort zone in a position we find extremely uncomfortable to begin with. Sometimes that seems like the easier path, and sometimes we choose it. And that truly is a shame.
