My friend, since one of your wish failed, its not that you shouldn't expect something to happen my friend. "All is good and all is for good my friend." My dream was to enter into aeronautical engineering and fly to moon one day or the other my friend. But I lost it because of my careless mistakes due to over confidence my friend. Thus finally I entered into an institution joining B.E in EEE my friend. I don't know if I would've been as happy as I'm now my friend. I never knew that I'll get a partner soo much to care for me my friend. I got friends more valuable to me and a few who hit my back making me to know whats live. Thus its never that we lost in something. Its always that we've gained in something my friend. Even now I wish to go to the outer soace and view at our planet from there. And I'll do it some day my friend that too with my beloved my friend. Life is to wish and to make those to happen my friend. If its not possibe now try to accomplish it in some other way my friend. Eg. Later in your live you could arrange a hospital for the poor. Sure its even more valuable my friend. You cant become a docter anymore, but sure can atleast move near to the goal my friend. These are not for name sake my friend. These are the facts I'm putting to you my friend. Good morning and have a good day my friend.

Yeah,it happens to many I guess. You want to be something and you end up doing something completely different from that. The reasons can range from lack of opportunity,your own negligence,pressure from your family basically not taking the right decision at the right time. If you desperately want to change it then go ahead with firm steps,nothing is irrevocable. Otherwise stick to what you are doing and eventually you might find pleasure in it! As far as my own life is concerned ,yes I am quite satisfied with what I am doing,I enjoy it!

When i was a child i wanted to be many things, none of which i am, but i must say when i was younger, i though about being a nurse, and that is the path i'm taking now, i am working in the hospital, as a clerk, so after a couple years of doing this, i may think about going back to school and take nursing if i still have interest in the health care i'll go head and try it out. But nursing wasn't my top choices lol
