What Do I Want to Be When I Grow Up?
I remember when I was a little girl, I wanted to be a lot of things when I grew up. I wanted to be a doctor, a lawyer, a teacher, and even a president. As I got older, my interests changed, and so did my career aspirations. But one thing that never changed was my desire to make a difference in the world.
I’m not sure what I want to be when I grow up, but I know that I want to do something that will make a difference in the world. I want to help people, and I want to make the world a better place. I’m not sure what that will look like, but I’m excited to find out.
