For some reason lately, I keep thinking about what I want to do before I die. I'm not entirely sure why. I'm very thankful that I'm going to be able to do one of the things that's in my list that I mentioned last time, which is to see TSOAF live. The second biggest thing I want to do is to go to Iceland and Sweden. Pretty much everywhere and anywhere in Scandinavia. Iceland looks so beautiful. I've dreamed of going there and Sweden for sometime now. Call me crazy, but I've even imagined going there in my dreams and it was amazing. I think I wrote a post about that actually. I mostly want to go swimming in the blue lagoon and see the aurora borealis. Another thing I really want to do is get a tattoo. For a couple years now, I've thought about getting a feather. I still want one, but I'm not sure the exact details of it. So I thought of another idea. Something that really hits home for me in more ways than one which is getting the words "lagom är bäst" on my ribs. The word lagom is a Swedish word that best translates as "just enough". Not too much, not too little. It relates to minimalism and how I live my life. "Är bäst" means "is best". I still haven't decided about whether to just get the word lagom or get the full phrase or not yet. That phrase is apparently a Swedish proverb and is how a lot of Swedes try to live their lives. Another thing I want to do is obviously become a hair stylist. I cannot wait until the day I can call myself a hair stylist. I think about it every day.
Ok just going out on a whim here, because why not. My dream is to
- own a beautiful (but simply) landscaped, small craftsman style home with a vegetable garden (the above picture is essentially my dream house)
- be a hairstylist
- have a Mini Cooper
- travel
- have a couple tattoos
- have great hair
These are the basics. I could totally add more, but for the sake of simplicity I'll stick with those.
Do you ever wonder how often people actually think of their dreams? Or if they even have dreams? And if they do, why aren't they working towards them (if they're not)? For me, it's totally a financial thing, but I'm going to make it happen. I'm not sure how soon, but I'm going to make it happen. I just feel like there's so many people today that don't have dreams. Nothing to look forward to in life. It may be a generation thing. I'm worried about our future generations. Honestly worried. I can't imagine people who are worried about twerking and swag (sorry I had to) have any interesting things they want to do in the future. I could be wrong though. It's nice to dream every once in a while.
