The Mistery of Our Future
We all ask ourselves and wonder for a very long period of time what do we want to be when we grow up? We want to be sucessful and make our families proud. Some might just want to be filthy rich and not work a second more. Me, for example I always wanted to be a cop, a police officer or a correctional officer. It all started when I was young playing video games , staying up all night watching crime movies. I remember when I got my first gaming system at age 10, a nintendo sixty four with a 007 game with James Bond. Those were the good days, staying up all night eating a big bowl of lucky charms. This is where my passion came from, I was dominant playing this game. I remember playing this game with friends and cousins and I took this game really seriously.If I lost the game I would truly feel like I actually died in real life. I would walk slow, crawl,hide like if it was real, and you could even see me shaking my hands trying to hold on to the controller. It goes way back, but I really wonder do we really know what our future holds?
I've seen police officers in real life and it's a tough job ,I've seen police officers get really badly hurt and injured.It's a really dangerous job and I wonder do I really want that.Do I really want to put my family through that, I did my research to find out how many deaths in the U.S for police officers and found out that it's an average of one death every 58 hours. This is something I might have to think about.As a kid I had the a passion for learning different types of weapons and taking someone down, but now as I grew up and understand the job of being a police officer is more that I just like helping people and doing the right thing. My whole life my mother has been telling me I want you to make something of yourself, I want you to do well and I want you to follow your heart. Sometimes you start growing passions for other things and they go away in six months
I remember one time when I was watching the X games during the summer on TV, and I was amazed at how cool it was. I immediatley told my mother I want a skateboard for Christmas, I wanted to be a profesional, one of the best. So my mother did that for me and bought a fifty dollars board, twenty five dollars wheels, ten dollar bearrings and I even got some new shoes. She Spend over a hundred and fifty dollars on this. Let's just say it wasn't that easy, I expected to ride a skateboard smoothly like the guys from TV and instead I was falling off of it every five seconds. By the end of the day I would be in pain, My passion for being a proffesional skateboarder was gone, I hated it.
My point is you just dont know what in the world your future holds. I still have the passion for being a police officer but who knows maybe in the future things might change.The only thing that I really want to make sure is that whatever it is I choose I hope that I am happy and never regret what I have chosen.
