Undecided Wanderer


Most people know what they want to be Others don't have a clue That's me People say "I've always wanted to be a doctor." I say "I don't know what I want to be." Even when they were little, "I want to be a princess!" Me, "I don't know?" Now that I'm older, a teenager in high school, I still don't know. I have a clue but can't commit to it. People still say, "I want to be a nurse, a lawyer,..." etc. Me, "I still don't know?" At first, I thought it was bad, I thought it was bad to not know what you want to do in the future, but now I realized something. I realized that it's OK not to know. I realized that sometimes it's better not to know. It gives you more opportunities and choices. I'm open minded. I can experience different things. I can experiment with different things until I find the one that's for me. So it's OK to say "I don't know?" or "I'm not sure?" It's OK for me to not know, because I will know sooner or later just not now. For now I'm just An Undecided Wanderer.
