    At the end of the day.

    I want to live like a hermit in the French countryside. I want a modest house and endless summer days. I want to be able to support my mom, pay to renovate her house, and make her life better. I want to go to a club and have a good time once in a while, but mostly I want to spend the days outside, running, biking, hiking, walking around, taking pictures, walking into the stream.

    I'm sure there must be more than that, that I ultimately want out of life, but what I need is a long vacation so that I can get sight of it again.

    Your turn— thoughts?

    I'd like to live off the grid in an earthship and not have to work, at least not much. I'd like to be a professional artist and fully recognized as a man. I want to live in a community surrounded by my friends.

    Well, if I could win the lottery and pay off all my students loans and never work that'd be nice, but since that's not happening... :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I just wanna finish college, find a girl I love, a job I love, and have kids and have a happy life. Sounds simple, but I don't need anything fancy to be happy. I'd love to move somewhere beautiful also, because I don't want to live here in this same city for my entire life.

    I want to start out following through with my teaching degree and land a job at a prestigious high school somewhere (preferably in Miami or Boston), while in the meantime using my summers and holidays off to do freelance work as well as write and sell off movie/tv screenplays.

    Maybe that's not exactly the most realistic goal I could have professional-wise, but....whatever, I'm sticking with it for the foreseeable future :wink:

    As far as what I want personal-wise....well, I do know that I definitely want to marry one day. I'm not sure what kinda place I'd want to settle down in though. Not sure I'd want to live in a suburbia but at the same time I know that I don't want to live somewhere where I feel too isolated from the rest of the world.

    I'll figure the latter out eventually lol

    Finish my PhD, university professorship somewhere in the western US, husband, dog(s), lots of traveling, and maybe open up a bed & breakfast when I retire.

    Well me and some friends have a rally news website that some people use daily so ideally I'd like that to become a big recognised business with a proper office and a dozen or so people working there. Unlikely but still...

    Own a home somewhere warm with my loving husband, have at least 3 dogs, travel as much as possible, and hopefully have a neighbor or friend that would be willing to dogsit on a fairly regular basis.

    To travel, to see what the world's got to offer, to have some great adventures with great friends, do something important, have enough money to not worry about the bills, to really make the most of the time I have.

    Also invent a car that runs on Cotton Candy and be able to breathe fire when I don't feel like using the toaster.

    I would like to open up my own pet daycare and boarding facility/ animal shelter. I would want to live on my own property with my beautiful wife, kids, and our pets. Nothing to fancy just simple. All I want is to be happy.

    As much happiness and contentment as possible. Sounds so simple, doesn't it?

    What I want most out of life actually involves my death. I want my life to mean something. I want to be remembered not just by family because after they die, I'd become only a name on a paper in an archive somewhere. I want to be remembered by the world. To achieve immortality one must first die.

    I don't even know...
    Being a hermit sounds good right about now, and I know one thing I aspire to have is balance.

    This question is always on my mind.
