Of what did you dream
Before you knew your limits?
The world was open.
What did you aspire
When you met your gifts? 'Fore dreams
Stolen by safety.
A quiet place to publicly share my thoughts as I pursue a life of loving God more.
It is poor work to read the Bible from mere curiosity, and for speculative purposes, in order to fill your head and store your mind with opinions, while you do not allow the book to influence your heart and life. That Bible is read best which is practiced most.

When I wrote this, I wasn't positive of my answers. So I went in search (asked my parents ;)), but came away without a definite answer to the first question of what I wanted to become before I knew anything. So I'll say that I've always admired the idea of the comic book hero, particularly Batman :D.
For the second, the earliest career goal my mom and I could remember was the general desire to create, to design. Which at the time, meant architect or engineer (a friend's dad was a civil engineer which sounded interesting).
This whole exercise is part of a general search for what I should be doing now, based on ideas proposed by Eldredge (notice 2 of his books are over there on the right as recently read). But since I ended up an engineer (software) and I'm not sure how to derive life goals from Batman ;), another means will be needed to find direction.
