When I was a kid -- many, many years ago, I thought that I'd be a nun (to do charity, so to speak) or get involve in some big time corporate career, either in music, just to be some big shot... As I grew up, I realised that to be a nun, I must be a Catholic (never heard of a Protestant nun), while climbing corporate ladder doesn't hold any appeal any more.
My guess is, I must have pass through the phase where people are supposed to want to chase after something, to an extend, social work is probably still closer to my heart. I've been wondering, why should I chase after something which everyone else is also after, which wouldn't really leave much of a legacy that I wanted, when I should pursue after something which I'd be happy to continue with when I get older.
While thinking about this, I knew right on that my career move (or goal) is something that I'm already working on, and God's willing, within the next 5 years, I'd be there doing the very thing that God Himself must have planted into my heart long, long time ago, when I was still but a naive wondering kid.
