For me, I have never truly known what I want to be when I am older, but I do know what I am passionate about. I love cheerleading, designing homes and inspiring people to learn. I hope someday I will follow my heart, by pursuing a career in an area I am passionate about. A career is not a job. A job is a task people from all around the world do to provide for themselves and for their families. A career is a passion. Yes, it is a passion that also gets you money, but for many people it is something they have looked forward to since they were a little kid. For me, I have never truly known what I want to do when I’m older, but I do know what I’m passionate about. So, I hope that someday I will follow my passions and do something that I love.
This artist has contemplated the question of ‘What would you like to do/be when you grow up?’ and they have given us a glimpse into their heart. I wonder how this image will change over the years?
