We all had childhood career dreams..... Who ACTUALLY achieved them?

Hmmm. This is an interesting switch in career choice! Maybe your time to be an Angel WILL show itself at some stage of your evolution or at the end of this life or the one of the many next? As for being Merlin? Arguably you could seek a Wiccan lifestyle of sorts and come pretty close I reckon! lol. Come to think of it, at one stage of my childhood I was SURE I wanted to be Chuck Norris?? Thanks for responding.

Oh I GOT your Angel reference! lol. My statement still stands! You can still be one in this life or the next! This life is but a stepping stone to completeness! And your body is but a mortal vessel in which your greater spirit resides.... A time will come when the cycles you have experienced throughout your existence will have come full circle and you will have earned the right to sit by the hand of God. (Or Nirvana, or spiritual valhalla or whatever you wish to call it if you are not God inclined as such!). Bottom line is that what we experience today as a living, breathing mortal is but the tip of the iceberg and we will all eventually return back to the natural energy source from which we came. The actions, beliefs, thoughts, opinions, food etc (you get my drift here!) will ultimately determine the "purity" of this energy our mortal vessel contains. Once it has regenerated itself to a level of ethereal completeness that is worthy of joining the complete timeless, ageless and multiversal pool without contaminating it; then as far as I am concerned, our journey ends! We have to earn it!

Well Chuck (hehe), by Angel I didn't mean an entity with wings and a halo and an ethereal body, I just wanted to be able to alleviate the suffering I saw so many people doing around me. What I did instead was to join them in their suffering! But that is over and done with. Now I realize that it is the individual himself that chooses to suffer, and only the individual himself can choose joy... I cannot choose for him (or her). All I can do is offer an uplifting example and speak the truth as I know it. And my Merlin thing has matured into a desire to 'master the elements' and be the creator of my own experience. Both of these objectives are aspects of who I really am - and that is my overall objective... to open the passageway that connects my physical aspect to spirit so who I really am can flow freely and joyously in this life.

Good for you! I never thought that I would end up living and working overseas (even though I was born outside of my home country) but I have lived in the Philippines for 18 months or so and am now moved again; living and working in India! Sometimes things don't always turn out the way you expected but always seem to turn out ok! We are the masters of our destiny maybe? Thanks for responding.

Oh, thank you for the pencil. Another dream is about to come true. I'm marrying my dream man.

You are welcome! Sorry it took so long! lol. Yes! I have seen your news and have responded to your topic regarding the same! I wish you every happiness imaginable! (And what are you doing online anyways!!!!! You are supposed to preparing!)

Well good for you for not only achieving your initial dream; but for then having the confidence to change paths and be satisfied with your decision! It takes courage to walk away from what we know and embrace something new. Thanks for responding.

Well thank you for noticing it! Even if it IS a year after I posted it; better late than never right? I too hope to read about some unbelievably popular Brazilian Rock Band some time in the future and then put two and two together! I wish you all the best with your dream and thanks for responding.

Hahaha, you will hear it! And when we're famous, I'll make a song called myLot!
