time changes a person

Let me be serious. Whenever a friend or an acquaintance asks me, "Suppiah, what is your vision or goal in your life?, I will cringe when I think of the stakes of answering this question. Frankly, I'm not able to answer this simple question properly. Maybe I have not thought of that in depth or I give my own life a damn..I used to dream of being a sportsman, I like to play hockey when I was young and when I was in the school but that was years ago...later in life, I like to be a top car salesman because I like cars. Somehow, the path drifts and now I'm just a normal project engineer.

Well, coming back to reality, I guess my answer now will be I wish to take care of my family well enough so that they do not have to suffer too much. Pretty ambitionless arh?

As kids, we wish to grow up faster so that we can escape from the clutches of our parents. So we dream but such dream changes as we grow up and we experience different things. The dream of being a sportsman changes when I studied in uni and now I'm not even sure if this is what I want in life, just that the salary of this job is enough for me to feed my family well which is the most comforting.

So time changes a person...
