A simple enough question...
We all had dreams as children. To grow up to be astronauts, kings, power rangers, pop stars.

What was your dream?


Post as many times as you like... hey, we all wanted to be different things at different ages.

Be truthful. Even if it's embarrassing.

And no making fun of other people's dreams.




And if you actually live your childhood dream now... well... good for you! and have a cookie.

Dream: I wanted to be a veternarian, then when I was 17 I worked for one. I loved it until I had to stay after to help put a dog to sleep. I had to take his leg and pop the vein up so the vet could put the needle in. I cried all the way home.

Dream: When I was in grade school, I always thought, as did most of my family, that I would grow up to be a lawyer. Which is funny, because I HATE getting up in front of people now!

Dream: I bounced around different ideas, too--artist, astronaut, writer, teacher, filmaker, psychologist, doctor--I admired the guy on the show "Pretender" for getting to do something new every week. That would be a cool life--if it was legal, lol. :-)
