there are times that when a person is bored. he's thinking of something right? example, in times of boredom, I usually sit in front of my computer, reading some articles and think. WHAT DO I WANT TO BE? there are certain factors that you need to think of for you to set what do you want to be in the FUTURE. sometimes, you include LOVE, Religion, family, friends and career as well. but how will you set yourself to achieve that goal?!! you know what? sometimes, I thought that I was a stupid and a useless person. but I don't want to tolerate it. I know to myself and I need to stop thinking like that. how about you? remember what's the quote on the movie, life is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you're gonna get.

I used to dream of being an excellent chemist. But it all change because of my parents' desires for me. They want me to be an accountant. But I'm so glad I obeyed them for I also started liking it, my life right now,it's enjoyable.

There are certain times in life that the things we did not expect or things we do not want will be the reason behind our success. Think it as a blessing in disguise and make the most out of it.

Hi, Sometimes we decide something and we can't do it. Then we become frustrated. After many experiences and realizing mistakes I have decided not to think about future. Now I try to enjoy every moment of life. So I am very happy with whatever I have. I am a retired person and I have only son. He has a good job and he is satisfied with his job. He loves us very much and very careful about us. The quote you have mentioned is very right, a life is like a chocolate you never know what you're gonna get.

I sometime ask my self, what if I was very smart. I mean so smart I could determine what was exactly the right thing at any given time. I think we can dream something, certainly that is good but we don’t want to ever think we are foolish because of a dream because no dream is foolish. Maybe we could imagine ourselves receiving the next nobel peace metal for solving all the worlds problems but this may not be possible. We could envision ourselves flying across the universe in a space ship but that might not be possible either. I try to think why do I want what I think I want. Why? Perhaps it is so people will think highly of me? Maybe I want a big adventure? There are so many ways to achieve these things without it being exactly my dream. It might not happen the way we think it will, yeah. Will I get the one with a nut in it or a cherry or the very sweet one, I don’t know. Maybe if I just close my eyes and just pick one it will be the one for me. At the very least while I’m still alive, I get a pick.

I've always wanted to be an astronomer; but I ended up being an accountant LOL! Mainly because my country do not actually fully support that area of study and my best shot of being one is if I will study abroad. I don't wan't my parents' pockets to bleed so I just settle to the next best thing that interests me. I know that te differences between astronomy and accountancy are astronomical and they have noting in common except the same first and last letters. I know, I'm just weird.
