my "aha" moment!

so i've had an epiphany (everytime i use that word i think of chrisette michele haha)! since i am getting ready to graduate, the question everyone keeps asking me what i'm going to do with my life lol. i didn't really have a single answer for them because i feel like there are so many options in life that i can't just pick one thing i'd like to do. i don't like feeling limited, ya know?! but as i was going through the list of things i'd enjoy doing forever, there was always one common denominator: helping people. no matter what career path i imagined, it always came back to helping people. be it through small efforts or large, i truly just enjoy helping other people. so with that said, can you guess what i want to be when i grow up?? well i'll tell you: i want to be a humanitarian. and i don't care if i'm never publicly recognized for my efforts because it is satisfaction enough to know that helped someone else who needed it. seriously. i know that sounds a little cliche or ambitious or whatever, but it is what i have decided. just wanted to share that with you. now that i've acknowledged my path, i also realize that i'm going to have to find ways to fund my passion of helping other people hahaha...but i will worry about that in the days to come Peace Love Blessings AMB(itious) p.s. the video has absolutely nothing to do with this post haha, i just added it to my youtube page so i'm putting it here as well
