As I read "To Be of Use", I appreciated the value of good honest work. There is always work to be done in the world and it is up to use to determine what is meaningful to us. We need to find what makes us happy in order to grow as humans.
As my high school experience comes closer to the end, I often find myself thinking about how I want "to be of use" in the world. I often loft between studying medicine and becoming a pediatrician, or studying engineering and contributing to the advancing world around us. Who knows, maybe I'll end up studying something totally different.
From a young age I knew that I wanted to help people in some way. As a kid I wanted to be a police officer because I admired their bravery. I even considered being a firefighter. As I grew older I discovered a talent for understanding mathematics. I may decide to take advantage of this as I enter college and start to pursue a career.
For now, I have yet to decide what I want to do. All I know is that I want my future profession to be beneficial to others. I want to be remembered as someone who cares about others and is willing to work hard no matter what the task.
