When I grow up

Is it just me or do we all feel increasingly confused as to the direction our lives should take the older we get. Here I am in my 30's and I can't help but wonder what I'm going to do when I grow up. Will I be an artist, a psychologist, a singer, an actor, a manager, a mother. I feel as though I'm at a constant crossroad and I could choose any direction and be successful, but which one is right for me? Does this ever get easier? I'm not sure it does. I do know, however that one of these choices is not really a choice at all. Regardless of what I do in my free time, I'm always a mother. And to tell you the truth, it's really the most fulfilling. So why do I feel like I need to do other things? In my perfect world I could spend all day with my son at my side creating music, singing and dancing and acting (the grown-up version of pretending). I guess what I'm trying to say is that I don't think we ever really grow-up. I think we get older and there's a silly number attached to that aging, but I don't think there's an age when we have it all figured out. I may never become a famous actor or singer or artist. But, I'll always be a mom and I guess that's an achievement. Whatever happens from year to year, I want to enjoy every minute of bringing a life into the world and to see all the things he could become as well. We'll make that journey together. Maybe he can help me decide what I should be when I grow up.
