All the things I want to be

Through the years, various fields and professions have fascinated me. I would have liked to be them but alas, life is short and mental and physical capabilities are limited. So I restricted myself to being a software engineer. Here goes:

Air force pilot - its cool… and flying!

Navy pilot/fighter  - the sea, the tension .long periods of nothingness and then little bit of high octane action

Marine biologist - Love whales!

Garbage truck driver - skilled profession of driving bigass vehicles, manoeuvring the pickup arm and dumping it into the truck. If lucky get to pick some good discarded items. Like barely used furniture.

NDRF - Going to dangerous places, saving people. Feels like an important job

Travel blogger -  get to travel and write

Writer/author - write random stories

Farmer - Take care of plants, grow and eat the same food. Be in the outdoors

Environmentalist - Work full time on solutions for environmental problems

Astronaut - space, explorer of galaxies

Scientist - Come up with cool new inventions.

Librarian - Books of course!

Entrepreneur - this is a new addition. dont know entrepreneur of what business, but want my own thing

Third-life crisis

 This is a new term that I heard from my friend the other day.

It wouldn’t matter to others but those thoughts matter to YOU. These thoughts could be anything from the fact that you are aging, to what you have achieved in your career to even existential questions like "Why am I here?"  I'm going through it myself (yes, right now) for all the reasons I
