Evaluation time for the Guru here. I have spent alot of my life looking at the possibilities of what I can and can't do as the determining factors in my life. Not the what I "want" to do moments. I would love to travel the world and see the seven wonders. "Can" I do these this? Probably not. I want to take this time in a forum that apparently no one reads and vent the frustration I have that too often in the life the wants we have go unnoticed. When I was a child there was only one dream I had. I wanted to be a paleontologist. I wanted to travel the world and search for remains of prehistoric animals to try and understand what the really happened before man existed on earth. I studied every book I could when I was about five until I was twelve. I learned every name of every animal I could. I absorbed everything. It was my dream. As a teenager, I had a very intelligent man I trusted tell me that there was no future in supporting a family as a paleontologist. That they lived off grants and never were home for a wife or children. If I wanted to be a dad or husband I would have to forget that dream. I threw it away. Was it fair of that person to throw reality at me? Yes it was. But far too often we forget that what we wanted so much in life could have been our calling in life. It could be the divine gift we had. How many if us are meant to understand and comprehend completely the meaning of the catastrophic event that wiped out the dinosaurs at five years old and be able to explain it verbatim? Am I bitter? Maybe.... Just please if you read this and you have children who have a gift or a wish. Nurture it, and cultivate it. Do not squash it out of hand or destroy a dream because it is just a dream. That dream could be the next Einstein, Hawking, or Stephen King staring you in the face and you will never know it. Be well, Ryan
