"What Shall I Be? A Chat With Young People" by Francis Bernard Cassilly is a motivational discussion aimed at young people, likely written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on guiding youth as they navigate important life decisions regarding their vocations, including religious life, and emphasizes the importance of personal ambition and the pursuit of excellence in various professions. The opening of this treatise presents a vibrant picture of youth as a time filled with dreams and aspirations. It reflects on the myriad paths available to young individuals and encourages them to consider their choices carefully. Cassilly introduces the concept of vocation, explaining that young people should not be afraid of making life-altering decisions. Instead, they are invited to embrace the idea of striving for a life of purpose and service, whether that be through embracing a spiritual calling or pursuing other noble professions. The text paints a picture of life as an exciting maze where thoughtful reflection can lead to fulfilling journeys, urging youth to aim high and prepare adequately for their future endeavors.
