Why is there no way to telescope down a path you are thinking about taking? All I want to know is what I should be when I grow up. I realize that I am nearly thirty years old and by definition "grown up" However. I don't feel grown up. At the moment I feel used up and under stimulated. I want to go back to school. I want to be in a classroom with grownups. I want to learn things, I want to think about something other than laundry, dishes, and poopy butts. The question is what do I go to school for? I am really leaning toward teaching elementary school kids. I like the idea, but I don't know. I remember having teachers that seemed so unhappy with life (I didn't know it then of course but looking back) and lets face it I don't need any help in the depressing department. So how do I know? How can I be sure that I am investing time and money into a future that I am actually going to enjoy? I honestly believe that everyone should have a career that they love. How do I know if I will love teaching? I am a little embarrassed to admit how much and how many times we have invested in my future. I don't want this to be just one more time we waste copious amounts of money for a job that I am not going to do. I wish there was a way to stand before a path you are thinking of taking and peek down the road to see what it is like. I am really starting to feel like a flake of all trades master of none.
