For the old heads.....career choice

As we age we become much more familiar, and comfortable, with who we really are. We recognize and appreciate both our talents and our shortcomings. I'm 43 and have come to realize I have above average reflexes....something slips out of my hand or I see something falling, I'm on it. Building something out of a few pieces of wood? fricking forget about it...I am not a handy person.
I chose my career at age 18. Been doing the same thing for 25 years. I'm damn good at it but as I've come to know myself better over the years, I really think I should've become a lawyer. Lawyers are scum for the most part but, given the skills I've come to recognize I possess over the years, I'm pretty sure I would've been a pretty damn good lawyer.
What do you think your "true calling" was now that your older?

I was just thinking about this the other day. I'm pretty sure I have way above average reflexes and balance... it's strange.
I wish I had gone into engineering... mechanical or aerospace.

I’m a lawyer but don’t practice.
My true calling is sports
writing because it has a positive impact on people.
I’m dispensable at that job so now I’m stocking shelves at Wal-Matt.
I’ll continue writing as a freelancer when sports resume.
I’m going to stay with Wal-Mart, too.

I always wanted to be a ninja. My dad said I had to go to college to be one. When I graduated, I found out he was full of shite. Too late..
