If You Could Be Anything....

Growing up we're always told we can be anything we want to be. I disagree, because that's not reality. I could never be an astronaut (not that I want to, ha). I could never be a robot. I could never be a monkey.. though some of you may think otherwise ;)

So if you could be anything what would you be? Throw out some ideas and why.. do you want to be an astronaut because you love science/space/adventure? Do you want to be better at drawing? Would you love to be a bird for a week and fly all over?

It doesn't just have to be a profession.

Profession - CPS = Because I like to help people, children in particular.

Animal - White tiger = They are rare and beautiful and basically are elegant in my mind.

Flower - Red Rose = Why not? They are beautiful and it says be careful since not everything beautiful is safe.

Thing - Book/Journal = I love to read and I love to see what I have written over the years in my dairy it takes me down a memory lane and I know that's how I would like someone else to feel :)

Thinner, younger, hairier.

Wise to be able to understand
Smart to know what to do with what I understand
Intelligent to be able to retain the info that I understand
And peaceful to know how to handle what I understand

And a singer, and a swimmer.

Hahahahaha Larry. That's a good one. But no, really.

Actually I like Luce's

A family dining table. Surrounded by happy chattering people enjoying good food and catching up with daily events...

A suitcase, traveling constantly to new places.

I want to be something abstract, like happines, a smile:-); so that I can go and sit on the hearts of those depressed people and light up their life.

Someone who doesn't have finals. A dancer.

I have been thinking about this all day, (on and off)

I am happy as I am , I guess I am cured.

^ That's a really good answer. Makes me smile. You sound like you are fulfilled in life.

Hmm, if it was an animal, maybe an eagle or horse?

An actual object, though: A pen, a leaf in the wind, a part of the sea.

A parent raising her young.

I'd like to be in the Harry Potter world (still waiting on the owl to deliver my invitation to Hogwarts). It'd be the coolest thing to be a bird for the day either. In terms of remaining human, a writer is something I've always considered in the back of my mind. I'd go off on writing haunts around the world, write and wander in evening/night and sleep most of the morning/day, and nobody would know me but someday I'd see a kid reading a battered old copy of my book and I'd be all happy and stuff

Born the correct gender

I would be happy.

Colm, i'm with you on the Harry Potter world.

I'd want to be something mythical or magical.

I've thought a lot about what I would be if I were an animal or something else in this world.

Part of me thinks a cloud. It does so much - provides shade in the heat, or rain (whether good or bad, but I love the rain). Different shapes, sizes, types - endless possibilities.

I'd like to be a tree for a spell. A tall, strong, unbending tree with moving branches and shaking leaves. Maybe I just want to be an ent.

Jane, you'd be a great ent!
However, you will no longer be able to go after Sauron
R.I.P.

On the other hand you & Britt could hold cloud-forest dominion together, whilst Mel & Colm join you as magical creatures.

If you find an old beat up suitcase fallen from the sky, that would be me.
