When you were little, did you ever try and picture what you'd look like when you were older? I remember when I was about 8, trying to picture who I'd be. Needless to say its not what I look like now, I'm not wearing a super hero outfit and I'm not covered in rippling muscles I don't even wear a cape.
I cant look at thing's that way anymore, not because of I'm more mature ( I'd still very much like to be a superhero with rippling muscle's ) but because I can't picture anything when I think about the future, there's just to many possibility's and I don't know what I want for myself. People use the expression "standing at the crossroads" or " a fork in a path" to try and explain this sort of situation but it's more like standing in a road that used to be straight and now there's 50 different path's in front of me, each more confusing than the last. Sometimes's I wish I was just that little kid I used to be, not because I want to be a child again but because I want to have that total self confidence and the knowledge of what I want to be, even if its something silly like being a superhero , a pirate or a secret agent with a thousand different gadgets.
