Perhaps my perspective is the only true hindrance, but as I aged up until now, I just noticed a lot of red tape, selfish people, and systems put in place years before my time. Iâm sure I could make a pie chart and at least some small percentage would be my own self doubts or procrastination. Some bad habit or other. Laziness possibly. But the rest of the chart as a whole, was enough to deter me anyhow. The way my personality functions and all didnât mesh with long term things and such. Itâs a bit sad. Itâs like knowing you have something that could change the lives of so many people, and they donât know who you are. If you died, those thoughts would die with you and theyâd go on and other would go on suffering or struggling. Itâs weird to see two worlds. One where your idea and ideas actually change it for the better, and then seeing the current world. And maybe trying to envision the one that progresses on years from now, from the world that was today.
Itâs a weird feeling whenever I ponder those worlds. A bit melancholic, but I try to avoid it. I simply try to make do with what Iâve got, and give the people what they really⌠really want. Some want us to pay taxes? I pay that. Some want us to pay rent? I pay that. Some want to feel free and nobody to tell them how to do it so I do that- I leave them be, and I watch the world in all its mistakes and some part of me lives in suffering. Some part lives in struggling. Some part lives numb, and a small part just notices the nice things in THIS world. The things that didnât have to be built. Nature. Wildlife. Community. Purity. And so on.
I also just lazily sit back and enjoy what others invented before me. The electric-rich life. Phones; lights, hot showers. Naps.
For now I have. Maybe forever. But Iâm willing to let it be unwritten and see if it changes down the road. Maybe Iâll have enough ambition or lived long enough to be willing to fight. Maybe will power comes with time. I canât say for sure.
I voted no just because thereâs smaller dreams I havenât let go of, like being with my long distance husband. This seems like something thatâs a bit doable. Thereâs more processes and such but not too long and it doesnât require years of training or too much money. At least not yet.
I've had to change my goals a lot because of my disability but I don't see it as abandoning my dreams I just see it as adjusting my goals to what I can realistically achieve and I have 2 things that I want to try out and we'll see how it goes :). I feel good living in reality. It might be difficult in the beginning for a lot of people but in the long run it's a lot better for a person to build their own life up and focus on their actual life instead of escaping :)
Either because my priorities changed, or because I realized they weren't what I hyped them up to be.
My wife as well. She didn't want to follow her family footsteps so she studied and worked as a nurse. The pandemic broke that in her, and now she's just happy working as a butcher and making sausages like her father does.
Yes I had a dream of opening a retro arcade and pizza joint started to pursue it acquired around 10 arcade games and one pinball machine , vintage Pepsi machine but then life got in the way a divorce, foreclosure and bankruptcy derailed my dream
No. I've been able to accomplish a lot of my dreams, thankfully. The dreams I haven't been able to accomplish are have either evolved/changed, or they didn't work out because of something totally outside of my control.
No, I live my dreams; but my dreams are simple ones. I only ask to have good friends and family, a roof over my head, some simple, comfortable clothes and to have a bit of fun.
