We all wanted to be astronauts.

Growing up we are not really aware of our goals, of what our future will look like as we grow up. Many, at age seven, considered that being an astronaut is their career choice - or maybe a spy for a secret service. All of that was realistic as long as we dreamt about it. But as we stepped into reality, in the non-existence of Santa Claus, everything fell apart.
It is a different experience for everyone and I’m sure there are some who actually became astronauts as they hoped they would - back in childhood - but the majority of people are still struggling in finding their own place, their purpose.
Looking back at my last year in high school, I can tell that many graduates are going to colleges without actually being aware of that “10 years from now” plan. Is it a lack of confidence that stops us from choosing the right path? Maybe money limits this ability - college education as an example? Time? Or maybe there is no single path for us? I believe in the last one.
Growing up, we learn, and by learning something new, we open new paths to choose for our future. Whenever you think that you stepped on the path which you are ready to walk on for the rest of your life - ex. teacher, doctor, lawyer - there is something new opening on the way, some other way.
But is there a point when it’s too late to change the path…?
