In the past 2 years, my life has changed dramatically. The dreams I once had, have quitely faded... new dreams have replaced them. So today, I'm taking a while to dream:
I want to:
- Be free from (less limited by) the social/emotional issues I struggle with. I want to have the courage to hug people who need it, the confidence to be who I am regardless of what people think, and the strength to try new things even when I'll probably fail. I'm very very greatful for Krista's blog, where she shares so many things that have really helped me.
- Get my finances under control, my healthcare debts paid, and start saving for international travel (yippee!) and retirement.
- Find a way to make money through my creativity... perhaps even enough to make it a career. My cousin is willing to sell dishcloths for me, but that isn't a real money-maker... I need to work on my crochet/knitting skills, get the courage to submit my poetry & writing to places that publish, and just generally find my niche in the world. I'm tired of office work.
At least, these are my dreams for today :) They may change with time.

It is very healthy to dream because it keeps the mind young. There is nothing wrong with it and I say, "enjoy it."

good to catch up and read the last few posts, too. sorry i've been away this week. it sounds like you're doing a great job staying present and navigating the ups and downs, though i am sorry to read about those low-down lows. hugs to you.
oh, also loved your "getting to know you" answers. it worked! i feel like i know you a little better every time i come here, but that was really jam-packed with jana-y details.
I'm wishing your dreams come true, for you, Jana! xo

((((Jana)))) Hugs are good, aren't they?
I too am so touched and grateful for Krista's blog.
I don't know you very well (yet!) but I feel that you do have the strength. I know how tough it is to jump, to take risks. The rewards are out there for us- let's (all of us) hold hands and jump!
