I find myself on a one way street, and I somehow "U" Turn back to where I was somewhere in my past. I get ahead of where I want to be, then life hands me some trouble, and I go back to being broke, and somehow back at the beginning. I need to say enough is a enough, sit down and see what I can get rid of, and somehow work on where I want to be. I myself love music, and want to be a songwriter. I hope this year or next I finally jump into it, and make it into a career.  |

I haven't started doing 'it' yet...I hope that I am right about what 'it' is and that maybe its just not time yet. But I honest to God feel in my heart and soul that my sole purpose on this earth is to change other people's lives...not just help them, but CHANGE them. I know that sounds very strange and I haven't figured out exactly how I am to accomplish that yet (well...sort of). I think I realized that was my calling when I looked back and realized that someone had changed my life. He may not know he did, even to this day...and I don't think that was his intention when he sent me that valentine...but I will always be grateful to him for helping me. I am going into school psychology, so hopefully I will positively change some childrens' lives soon...but I just think there is still more to it than that. Hope that doesn't sound too weird...   |

thanks freckleface, I need to push myself, get rid of the shyness, and get to where I want to be, and take it by the horns, and just do it. |

Lets see...my life's work is a flight attendant. Got this job in January..it was a dream come true when I got that phone call with the job offer. I knew this was it because it's the one job I've wanted and longed for consistently for over 8 years..everything else came and went...flight attendant stuck with me  |

I took a dental assisting course in high school for kicks in high school and really liked it. I really wanted to be a dentist until I found out I didn't have enough patience for school, so I'm just going to be a dental hygienist.  |

I've changed careers three times. I went back to school and finished college when I was 39. To be honest, if I could go back in time, I would have taken a different path because this is not what I ever wanted to do. (business accounting) But it pays the bills, which I suppose is everyones purpose in life. I tell my son all the time to find something he likes doing for fun and make a career out of it. If I could go back to being his age, I would have put more into my music or writing career. I could be famous by now, darn it!  |

I know mine is going to be something to help others. Not sure what yet... I wish I had that magic ball so I wouldnt waste time. But, then again - this might be my "path". Who knows. I'm focusing on my boys right now hopefully something will come my way (as far as an answer) someday.  |

I kind of think that once we figure out our lifes purpose, thats the time for us to pass away. Life is in the living, the discovering...it's the journey that is important, not so much the destination. Do we have but one purpose? Or is 'purpose' contextual?? Today my 'purpose' may be to help this person heal...tomorrow it may be to accept that they may not. I sometimes think that when we ask what am I supposed to do in my life we kind of miss the more subtle question of what am I supposed to do in other peoples.  |

Agent Smith - I like your thinking, but wouldnt that be our path to our "purpose"? I guess all our outcomes would still be the same in the end. |

Well, I have always wanted to be a writer- I've written a few things but never attempted to have them published yet..but it's still something I hope to do..I just keep telling myself it's not the right time yet and that I'll feel it when it is..I honestly can't explain why it's something I've always wanted to do- it's just always been inside of me....as far as my profession I'm a nurse..nd that came along by chance..I was looking for something to do in which I could make a good living for my daughter until such time as I could figure out what i really wanted to do, so I took the CNA course..after a few years I KNEW that I LOVED this job and wanted to do more, so I went to LPN school..and soon i will be moving forward to earn my Associates in Science/RN..and shortly therafter my Bachelors of Science...I think that when you find *that* thing..you just know it, you feel it...  |
