You know, for some people who struggle with the here and now this assignment isn't exactly a kind one. Can I just deal with the "here and now" and get back to you in ten years?
I am a long ways out of high school and I remember this question being bestowed on us then. "Where will you be in ten years?" I was full of naivety and I thought of nothing but wonderful things. I'm not upset, maybe a little disappointed, but I'm not the same person I was 10 years ago or even 4 years ago. I can't say I want the same things I wanted then. I wanted all that was grandiose and "impressive" and now I like the idea of trying to find stability and comfort. Of course, a perk here and there isn't objectionable either. Ten years from now, if I'm lucky enough get there, I will look back on this and think "wow, I've changed even more!"
