I read not long ago what I wrote in my high school yearbook for my future dreams - I wrote that I wanted to be a writer, living by the ocean. I had to laugh - I’m a copyeditor, living near a (small) lake. Not quite there! Ha! You inspire me to think, Geva! Thank you😊
My 9 year old self was going to be an astronaut....then scientist. I was going to do something big! At 41 I learned how to listen to what I wanted instead of what I thought I wanted or was supposed to want. Now I'm teaching and love it. I make a bigger impact than I dreamt possible, it's just not in the limelight. And I'm deeply content. Many forks in the road!

I'd say you're real close. Thanks for always reading these. Feel free to send editing suggestions my way :)

Good for you for going after that dream at 41! You’re a phenomenal teacher and have found your calling.
