"For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15"
When I'm 40
When I’m forty, many things will be different than they are now.
Well, for starters, I’d be forty, my mom would be sixty-four, my dad would be sixty-six, and my younger brothers would be thirty-seven and thirty-eight.
My house would be in New Boston, New Hampshire - where I grew up. My house would be about the size of the house we own now. It would be a colonial home - not a modern home. My room would have a king bed, and above it would be a big loft where a couch would be, a hatch to the attic, and a flat screen television. I would have a nightstand on ether side of the bed so I could reach one, and my wife could reach the other. I would have a bureau for clothes, and my fish tank on top with a self-cleaning system in it so that it always was sparkling clean.
My yard would be a big hill that wouldn’t be to steep for me to walk down, but steep enough to have a fast sled hill on! My driveway would be at the bottom of the hill, and I would have a walkway up the hill to my front door.
I would have a Shih Tzu puppy named after my dog now, Nellie. I would also have some fish, in the fish tank on my bureau.
The day I turn forty, I want to go skydiving! (I got that idea from my mom.) I want to try water skiing, as well as keeping up with normal skiing. For other sports, well I want to play tennis. I like tennis now, so I hope I like it then!
Work-wise, I would be an engineer (like my father) and work for BAE (also like my father) to do what I like, (programming) and do it to help the USA.
For hobbies, well, fish-keeping (I’ve had that hobby since I was 3), making apps to sell on the App Store and Google Play (and probably more by then), and playing Piano. I will still play piano when I’m forty.
When I’m forty, many things may change from the way they are now, but those are some of the things I’m pretty confident about.
The things that will change are all relating to technology. By then, I have a feeling that there will be flying hover cars, robots that understand the whole English dictionary, and tablets that can change size to fit into a pocket.
Oh when I’m forty, many things will be different than they are now!
