Constants

When I picture my future, what I desire to attain most out of life in the next ten years, there are always certain things that remain unchanged. I want to be a successful business woman, who doesn't necessarily work in business, but rather, handles professional skills as a personal business; I want to do something with mathematical computations, and I want to work with people, and I see myself achieving this by marketing my skills to prospective employers to find the best career situation possible. That's going to be a difficult and enduring task, but its one aspect that never changes in my image of the future. I want to have a loving companionship with my best friend, someone who I can trust, communicate with, and be open and honest, and someone who I truly love. Sounds cliche, but I think the primary relationships we have affect the direction of our lives, and I want mine to stand on a sturdy foundation. There's family, and a warm, bright environment that fosters free thought with guided suggestions; I want to belong to a family of individuals, rather than like thinkers and doers. When I picture my future, I see it exactly as I would enjoy it, and I know it's possible. Its going to take diligence, compromise, and time... but when I get there - to the future - nothing else could be worth it more.

Small, short, but I think it's enough.

“When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.” (John M. Richardson, Jr., 1938- ).
