The question (essentially): In ten or fifteen years, what would you like to see yourself doing? Forget money, forget parents, forget all obstacles and barriers. Your talents are limitless and endless. Do ANYTHING.
The answer (written in class in five minutes): I would be in either Latin America or Africa (preferably jumping between the two) building sustainable and clean living areas for people. I would be a doctor and have a clinic in each village. I would probably spend all day holding babies and spending time with the people of the villages. I might have a husband, but no kids (because the the people of the villages would be my family). Nothing in the villages requires money. I don't get paid, and I do my work completely free. Everyone would have their own clean living space with running water, and each person would have free education and health care. I would come back to developed countries maybe 3-5 times a year to speak and share my experiences with large audiences in order to motivate them to get out and do something about the state of the world. I would write a book- not just any book that people read and forget about, or maybe recommend to a friend, but a book that starts a revolution. A book that makes others give up their lives to help others. (Profits would go to the village for supplies, of course).
A girl can dream, right?
