    A writer. Nice to realize when you think you've accomplished nothing that you've done at least some of what you thought you would. https://morphemetales.wordpress.com/publications-list/

    I wanted to create sets or do costumes for plays, or direct. I wanted to be a writer, an activist for various causes or relief worker, an actress, a restaurant critic... I wanted to be a teacher but completely changed my mind in college.

    I wanted to join the Red Cross and help people in disaster situations. I ended up day trading futures.

    Divorce Lawyer.... no, really! From 6-12 that's what I wanted to be. Then it was pediatrician... then nurse.... then social worker.... now I am a Nanny and I love it. Turns out I just like taking care of kids. Best job ever!

    Kids are great. I worked in a school for 6 years & I still work with the kids at my church. Also, I am trying to start my own program that involves children and theater. Dreams don't die, they only get bigger.
