Why do people not fulfill their dream profession from when they were kids?

My random thought today is wondering about the reasons why people end up working in different jobs than what they wanted when they were little?  I guess there are many reasons. Some I can think of are perhaps their parents wanted them to be something else, their choice wasn't a "smart" one financially, maybe physical limitations?  Whatever the reason, I feel a bit sad thinking about these people as little kids. I also thought of a cool reality show idea where people get to do what they wanted to do when they were little for a day or at least be involved somehow. If they wanted to be a teacher, can try to teach a class or if they wanted to be a pilot, can be in the cockpit or if they wanted to be an author, can write something that gets published or meet with an author. Not sure how people would feel after but maybe would be something cool?

What is the average height of things?

It's been a long day! I have finally sat down on the couch and I realized that my feet don't touch the ground! I usually sit with my feet up and now I see the short people problem of having my feet in the air! Makes me think about what is the average height of things? Are things made for the average male? I guess I need to find someone to make a girl size couch!

The need to be creative

Today I was getting overstimulated right before lunch; a mix of being hungry, work, my 5 year old son, and seeing awful news from the United States. Since I am a highly sensitive person, I tend to process things longer and deeper, so I was trying my best to navigate all of these things in a short time frame.  Now that I am sitting back at my desk to work, I saw my pack of finetip markers that my son had taken out of my bag, and I realized that it's been awhile since I did anything creative! Just looking at those markers made me imagine using them to try to continue to process all the things running through my mind, and it made me feel a bit better. The idea of creating something concrete, be it just a simple drawing, can help alleviate some of the lack of control one can feel at times and gives us something to look at and remember to find the calm.

What would be my superpower?

It's Monday and things are Monday-ing.  I was thinking about what superpower would I choose to have if I could? The ability to sleep whatever amount of time and still feel like I slept the optimal amount of hours my body needs to feel refreshed and energetic?  The ability to stop time to be able to chill, sleep(there seems to be a theme here lol), do whatever to catch up on what I am behind on? The ability to fly anywhere in a few minutes to take mini vacations anytime?  I would probably pick the second option so I don't have to worry about catching up on things. Until then, just will keep on swimming.

A Friday at the office

Welcome to my first entry on my new blog! I decided I should have a blog where I can share my random thoughts as most of the time, people, including myself, get busy, and it's frowned upon to spam others with messages, and this way, I can share my blog and if they have time, they can read it and hopefully find something to think about or at the very least, laugh about and make their day a little brighter!  Since it's August and it's a Friday, the parking lot was pretty empty when I got to work this morning and I randomly thought "I should try to park in different spots when they are available!" Would it make any difference? Probably not but "challenge accepted!" I sat down at a desk by the window, after the one I sat in yesterday was taken by someone who didn't know I wanted that seat! As long as it's by the window, it's all good! At some point while I was either in a meeting or working, I caught sight of a squirrel outside, and I thought how...
