Don't we all have dreams? If someone could wave a magic wand and grant you one wish, what would that one wish be? What is your dream life? Do you have one or are you one who feels you are destined to a life of hardship and that you don't have a choice in the matter? Do you believe in dreams? Do you believe they can come true? I do!

My dream life is, I want to be happy and healthy. I want to live at or near the beach or on the water. I want to travel. I want to finish my quest, whatever it is that makes me happy. I want to leave a positive legacy and be remembered as an honorable and passionate person. I want to be able to make money wherever I am, enjoy doing it, and be able to do it, or not, whenever I want. I want to be able to do what I do for as long as I live.

What is your dream life?
I will paraphrase a saying I heard many years ago that I really like: If you don't know where you're going, how will you know when you get there?

Dreaming is where it begins. There is no right or wrong. They are our dreams. Do you allow yourself to dream?

Some think it's just a waste of time.
How will your dreams ever come true if you don't allow yourself to dream?
To make dreams come true, we must know what they are. From there, it's a matter of doing what is necessary to make it happen. Are you willing to do whatever it takes? We are in charge of our own destinies. Make yours come true! Just go for it because we only go around once in this world. Make yours a trip, a journey of a lifetime! What is your dream life?

To be honest, I'm living my dream. Sure it might be nice to have the debts completely paid off, but that isn't standing in the way of my happiness. I love. I am loved. I feel worthwhile (thanks in large measure to my service to my country both during active duty and as a veteran)

I'm actually super low maintenance. My dream life would be to be debt free and working with an NGO in some backwater town in India. The first bit is slowly happening. The second - My wife is going to need a burning bush. haha
