My personal legend!

What do you want to accomplish in life? Where do you see your self ten years from now? What do you want to do when you're older? Three different questions but the answer to these questions is basically about what do your dream is.

A few months ago I was in my aunt's house, watching television with my cousins. She asked me "what's your dream life?". I was startled and was not able to answer her question. Instead I looked down on the floor and then smiled at her. At that time I didn't answer. Not because I don't have a dream. Not because I don't clearly know what my dream is. It's just that I am not the type of person who easily divulges my self, my thoughts, my feelings, my hopes and fears to other people. I am a very secretive person. At the back of my mind the answer was very very clear but preferred not to let her know.

When I was a child, everything was clear. Everything was possible. For me impossible was nothing. I dreamed I will achieve great things! I am someone who will become somebody someday!I was in high spirits and full of attitude!

When I was nine years old, I was brought to the hospital because of recurring fever. My mom and I stayed in the hospital the whole day!  While we were nervously waiting for the laboratory results, I noticed all these men and women in white uniform. I was fascinated with how they all worked. All these men and women are tirelessly attending to each and every patient in the E.R. with love and care. Later that day the doctor said my fever was due to dengue. I went home confident that I will be well soon and with a dream that someday I will become a doctor.

This world that we live in is oozing with life and beauty! Where ever you go there is beauty! I want to understand everything about life in this world so I told my self why not become a biologist. For me to study every living creature that walks here on Earth I should travel So why not travel. Traveling I think is fun and exciting to do. When you travel you'll meet a lot of people. You'll learn the different and diverse way of life of other people all over the globe. So I said why not become a sociologist.You'll also learn other peoples language I love words! I am a bookworm! I love reading books and never get tired of doing it so I said why not become a multi-linguist. I always believed that our past, our present and our future are interconnected. I love reading history books. I always imagine what Earth was like millions of years ago so I said to my self why not become an archaeologist or anthropologist or historian.

In life as you grow older, you learn a lot of things. You learn what is achievable and what is not. You are faced with reality and it will slap you in the face. Right now my dream is very very clear! I want to become an educator! 

I was a dreamer! Always a dreamer and will still dream until that time that I will slumber for which on earth there is no waking! I am not afraid of death. We are all bound to die. (What I am afraid of is, if I die knowing I didn't achieve all the things I want in life.)  

Actually I dreamed of dying! I know it's weird but I dream of that moment because I want to know how it felt. haha I want to know  the conclusion of life! Face to face with GOD! I know with all his power and infinite knowledge he's the only one who can answer all the if's in my heart!
