What are your dreams and hopes for the future?
Do you have any goals or a bucket list you'd like to check off?

What are you doing to get there?

Share away.

To wake up before my children in the morning, daven and be ready to greet them and give them breakfast when they wake up, with a smile!

(I don't know if you had in mind something lighter, this is in entertainment, but those are the "lofty" thoughts I think of when I see the words dreams and hopes!)

You can share whatever you like.

Thank you. I appreciate that.

I don't know if it's special, right now it's just a dream.

What am I doing to get there? I don't know. Trying to get up with my children, not rolling over and going back to sleep, for starters. Being up and dressed before them is still Mt. Everest for me.

I'm dreaming of having a wonderful marriage. And being happy and productive.

I'm hoping....something a bit more realistic...maybe lose some weight?

Hey you never know. Things can change with the blink of an eye.
I'm sure you're putting in the work.

What an interesting idea! I'd love to view the exhibit once complete.
I'm quite the history buff.

What about you, OP?
Wanna share?

Thanks for asking!

I dream of being alone for a while. Alone on an island while I gather my thoughts. Figure out my needs and wants. My opinions and beliefs.

I hope I will gain peace and clarity in my lifetime. That I will find joy and a will to live. That I can help others once I get through my pain.

My goals are to earn my independence and get my career moving. I am slowly working on some steps to get there.

My bucket list has some unconventional items to check off. Things like body piercings, body art, fun hair colors and wild recreational ideas.

Got a whole lot more than you bargained for. Eh?

Audio engineering.
(Studio mixing and recording.)

Maybe DJ eventually if it is popular enough.

Wow!
Not at all, I actually related to a lot of that.
I hope you are able to actualize your dreams, the conventional as well as the un!

Take art lessons

Learn more about play therapy

Run a half marathon
Then a full marathon
Join a Womens only sports team

Control my weight

Learn how to paint my house

Travel the world
At least see the Swiss alps

Create a soup kitchen/low cost restaurant to maintain some dignity

Clean up my entire house
Change my body clock

Practically in the next five years I’ll probably do about two of them, just not sure which two😉

To stop believing I'm broken. To start living.

You can do it.
What kind of first step can you take?

A victory notebook has been helping me with that.
Writing a few positive things I've done every day.

We can do hard things.

Wow that's quite the list!

Art lessons and house painting sound doable enough.
I would probably start with that!
