What will I be?

When I was just a little girl (ok, when I was a little boy)
I asked my mother
What will I be
Will I be pretty
Will I be rich
Here's what she said to me

Que sera, sera
Whatever will be, will be
The future's not ours to see
Que sera, sera
What will be, will be

I think everybody knows this song, sung by Doris Day in the film, "The Man who knew too much."

What will I be? This is a question, I asked myself a lot, when I was 12 Years old, I asked myself this question even more, when I was 17 years old and now, nearly 37 years, I asked myself this question again.

What will I be?

Life changes a lot of times. It changes, when you came from childhood into youth, it changes, when you get your first job, when you marry someone, when the first child came and so on. And when all the typical were done. Building a house, marrying a girl, getting a baby and planting a tree. When all this is done, you should think life calm down now. But it isn’t so. Not in my life.

I am always on the run. I am searching new things, I am searching for new tasks, and I can’t stop. I thought that I can live my life in quietness now, because I have everything I wish for, but far wrong. I am reading book after book, to find out what I will be, can be, now, in the future.

At the moment I am reading the book from Barbara Sher “Wishcraft. How to get what you really want.” She promise to me, that I will know, what I really want and that I get, what I really want, after reading her book. That sounds great, but…If it is so easy, why did not everybody in the world do this? Hey, everybody would be happy, everybody…I hope she is right with her promise…

What about you? Are you the one you would be, or are you on the way? And when you still there, how did you make it? (pleeeeeaaaase tell me...)

Yours,

Markus
