When I Grow Up

When I grow up, I want to be a policeman.  Remember those days?  When we were little tikes, running around the house, tearing up every room, always dreaming about what we wanted to be when we grew up?

Well, I did want to be a policeman.  I used to watch all the cop shows when I was young, dreaming I would be an FBI agent someday.  Sad to say, I never made it to that level.  Perhaps being 52 and suffering from arthritis has put a damper o my dream, but at least I gave it a shot.

Having failed at one goal does not mean I have not achieved other dreams.  They say perseverance is critical to achievements.  I would have to agree.  I have always had lots of ideas and ambitions, only to have one after another knocked down over time.  Yet, I keep coming up with new ideas, hoping I will one day become successful in something.

Oh well.  As I always say, "Life goes on".  Maybe when I grow up, I will be a successful writer........
