Five

When you were five, what did you want to be when you grew up?

I barely remember being five but when I was, I think I wanted to be Casper the friendly ghost. A lot of of my aspirations as a child seemed to be based around black-and-white television shows. I somehow knew Superman wasn’t real, but I sort of still wanted to be him then later, Lloyd Bridges came along with sea Hunt and I wanted to be Lloyd Bridges. Well at the time. I didn’t know his name, but it was still a dream away as a five year-old. Another side of me as a child in reality or what I thought was reality as a child had a calling inside of me to want to be a preacher just like my dad was. Nevertheless, whatever I wanted to be when I was five years old didn’t reach those goals, but it sure was fun being five years old.
