When I was a freshman in highschool I had thought about being a career special forces, By my junior year FBI profiler was also on the table. After high school I joined the Navy watched too many friends have life problems. Returned to civilian life went to school got my teaching certificate 1, got into manufacturing the money was good had set school aside. Had a bad injury got into retail and maintenance past injury put a halt to that. Kids came along and had accumulated tons of knowledge life and observing. Ended up being a single dad devote all extra time to my twins. Helped out in the school. Now I am a poet, the pay is nonexistent and aspiring author.

At 64 I am still trying to figure out what I want to be. I've been a funeral director, mass fatality responder for FEMA , a Radio shack employee. Now I'm a employment specialist for the AARP Foundation. I am still looking, but the idea I had at first was to teach history and I am glad that didn't work out, I wouldn't want to be in a school now.

Yes it is

When I was a teenager my father had a Catholic Priest friend. He often came over our house and "hung out" with my father. When I was in my senior year in high school the Priest started asking me if I wanted to be a Priest. He guaranteed that he had the "pull" to get me admited to a Seminary. I was very interested in sex and believed that Priests are celibate, so I always said "NO" Now that I am older and wiser I wonder if I might have passed up a good job. Just work on Sundays....and to hell with that celibate rule.

In the process of a career change.
