Where My Future Leads Me

Ever since I can remember I wanted to become a teacher. Starting out in college I studied elementary education, for two years I pursued this. When the last quarter at community college was winding down I really thought about what I wanted to do for my career.  Only being twenty years old I felt too young to make a decision like that, by society standards I should have figured that out by the end if high school.

I came to the conclusion that the reason I wanted to become a teacher was because school was familiar to me. At that point sixteen out of twenty of my years was spent in school. Thinking about my future I wanted to succeed and have a stable job. But that’s just it… I wanted a job not a career. Don’t get me wrong I have huge respect for teachers but for me I didn't look at teaching as a passion.

I have decided to take a chance with life, not play the safe card. I need to push myself. I know if  I apply myself and work hard I can make something of myself. I am now studying Communications with a minor in Family Studies. At this moment I still don’t have a clear path on what I want to do with the rest of my life but that’s okay. I chose two things I am passionate for and can apply to my life. I can already see a huge difference on how I look at my future, I see many possibilities.

I don’t have to know my future and have it all planned out, God will guide me where I need to be.
