if someone were to approach me and ask me, what are your dreams??? my answer would be...
i.have.no.clue.
i have been in a total slump lately. not even kidding. just going through the motions, trying my best to survive in this "doggy-dog" (thank you gloria from modern family for that one...lol) world. i have been hesitant to write about this topic for this reason. seems a bit loser-ish of me to not have any dreams. but then i came across the following quote
total justification. lol. but on the real...it's sooooooo true. when i look back at my life a few years ago...there are so many things that i have accomplished up to this point that were all just a dream back then. both big and small. here's a few examples:
- i own my very own car. yup....kept talking about it in the past...just couldn't afford it. now, it's a dream come true
- backpacking through europe. NEVER thought i'd ever get to do that. but i totally did and it was totally awesome. dream come true
- graduating from college. in political science of all majors. it was a long time coming. but i did it. another dream come true.
- the freedom to travel. been bit by the travel bug a few years back, and scrimped and saved for every trip. now i have my own personal fleet of "private" jets. thank you delta. dream come true.
these are just a few examples, of the MANY "dreams" that have manifested themselves in the past few years. actually...this all happened in the past year. huh...go figure. so thank you mr. greek philosopher for helping me realize although i may not have a clue as to what my dreams for the future are yet, its comforting to know that i have already made some older dreams come true.

oo i love this quote (the dream one, but the one by gloria too, bahahaha "That doesn't make any sense! Who wants to live in a world where dogs eat each other? Doggy-dog world is a beautiful world filled with little poh-pees." bahahaha yes i am a caaamper!} and i love this post :) it's good to have dreams and all but sometimes we just gotta stop and smell the roses! glv
I love the quote you posted and I think it's ok to be content where you are right now and where you have been. You have done a lot with your life and I'm sure that sooner or later, you will have more dreams to work towards.
