What do you want to be when you grow up?

I'm going to a high school graduation party this weekend. I have to chuckle because it feels like a lifetime ago when I was graduating high school. It's such an exciting time, yet you feel so unsure about what you want to do for the rest of your life. You have to ask yourself the cliche question, "What do I want to be when I grow up?" You know what? I'm still asking myself that question.

I like my career choice, but at the same time, I feel like something is missing? Is this normal? Does everyone feel this way, or is this a sign that I should make a career change? I really enjoy marketing and communications, but I've always had this yearning to go into teaching. The thought of going back to school seems so exciting yet daunting. It would be exciting to go back into the classroom. I would definitely have a new perspective and a greater appreciation for learning. On the other hand, the thought of financing another degree, and spending time away from My Little Man seems like such a selfish act that I don't want to put my family through that. My family and I would have to sacrifice so much that I'm not sure it's worth it.

This leaves me with accepting the status quo and making the most out of it. Perhaps I can revisit it in a few years. Although, I think I said this a few years ago. Hmm. Well, Que Sera Sera.
