Do you know, with clarity, what you want or are you just winging it through your life?



I used to know what I wanted but after the years passed, so did it.. But now I'm going after what's going to make me happy. It seems like I got more done in the last year, then I have in quite some time and accomplishing everything is what's really worth it. :)

Yay! Good for you. I think if you don't really know what you want, then just go after things that make you feel good or happy. Reach for the joy in life.

I know exactly what I want...

I want my man here, and I want to continue to enjoy my life.

I have a million plans, most of them fairytale dreams, that I enjoy makeing. and I live my life a little like a fairytale, always jumping happily from one dream to the next.. No disapointments, just another opportunity to enjoy life and make my dreams come true.

What are your dreams?(if that's not too personal...)

I have things I would like to accomplish in life but as far as getting there, I take what cards I'm dealt. Ever heard the saying, "If you wanna hear God laugh, tell him your plans"? Story of my life. And I am not a negative person, I don't automatically believe my plans will fail. I just take things one day at a time.

laugh Hmmmm My dreams, I dream of having a few thousand acres in the middle of nowhere, where I can escape from reality, where we live in the bush build what we want and not have to deal with modern living. Obviously we wouldd have to return to reality at times as i need to work, but not on holidays.

I want a cabin in america in the mountains away from the people where there is lots of snow and animals. That when we have to go there I dont have to be where all the people are.:smile:

I guess thats it, most of my dreams include little day to day things that the kids and I make happen, normally silly things where we might paint our kitchen pink purple and green and stick fairy stickers on the walls and giant flowers so that it doesnt look like a kitchen..
Where we cover our toilets in butterfly's.

At night we sit around the table and plan the next dumb ting we will try. The next days adventure, or how we can terrorise anaconda when he gets here:angel:

Yes, I know what I want out of life. What I want isn't wealth or materialistic, what I want is to have a family of my own

I always know what I want

I am by nature decisive

I seldom tell others what I want- as it is the business of very few others

and when I do (tell what I want) they make assumptions that are not true anyway assuming to know what I want or thinking that I don't (know)

it's insane - I know what I want - don't question me, don't assume your own interpretation is better than what I have stated

when/if I tell you it is what I say no more no less

human assumptions are a cancer

- I guess is how I feel about it

I want to be an egregiously successful author, and I'm working on that.

I would also like to find a compatible girlfriend but that's not gonna happen. So I'll just settle for the author thing.




I would like to date an egregariously successful author woman. Or else have some good laughs. I am winging it most of the time. I am not a planner. For an unwinged creature, I am pretty good at flapping and trying my wings, though.

My family calls me the "flapper", therefore. My other contacts call me "trying", and some of them call me "very trying". (There is a chance that my family calls me the "flopper", I am a bit hard on hearing.)

"If you wanna hear God laugh, tell him your plans."

That is actually a good one.

That's going to cost you much more than wealth and materials, but it's going to be very nice. I wish you all the best of luck with your plan. Just don't tell God, please, for God's sake.

As long as you believe something is not going to happy, then it is not going to happen.


What about tornadoes?




That's not a valid argument. Prove to me that there are people who don't believe in tornadoes.

Do YOU believe in tornadoes? Yes or no. Do tornadoes happen? Yes or no.

She is actually right, I think. If you believe something can happen, then that something most likely can happen. There is no 100 percent guarantee, but then again, there is no 100 percent guarantee for anything else, either.

So as an indicator of a given eventuality, a belief is as good as any other. One just has to be careful with claiming number figures as accurate estimates of the probability.

I beleive people are too picky and not opened minded enough. THey say love is blind buts its not love that is its people that are blind. They may skip over a person because they dont think there tall enough or their type. You should have an idea of what you want but keep an open mind, because someone or something may just pass you by.

"I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul
I want you to notice when I'm not around
You're so f***ing special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell I'm doing here?
I don't belong here "

That song was on right now. :tongue:

I know what I want but sometimes it seems like I don't...I don't like too much structure, I don't wanna put down any more roots as I'm happy with the ones I have - so I think that makes me seem like I don't know what I want because I'm an emotional drifter

but in reality that is what I want...

I have a good life. I can say with perfect clarity that I would like to keep it exactly as it is....I couldn't say that two years ago. And good health to enjoy my life.
