From what I've read in most of these comments, people tend to have a dream that involves being outside of their comfort zone and living completely free from whatever it is that cripples them, as well as experiencing something that gives them a lot of happiness. When it comes to answering the "what is your dream?" type of question, I feel like the picture I envision in my mind is increasing each time I come up with the things I plan to achieve in this life. It's one of those THINK BIG. To me, a dream is never small or something insignificant that you shouldn't talk about. It's something that a person should hold onto or else the dream will just diminish.I'll go first - I'd love to travel, and as most of my friends only want to go on crazy raving holidays to ibiza or ayia napa, I'd like to go alone and meet people along the way. I think if I saved up and had enough money to go for 6 months to a year, not only would it give me time and space to clear my head and figure out what I want to do with my life, it would also be an amazing life experience and would definitely help me with meeting new people.
But as much as I want to meet new people, I'm terrified of it. Even if I could save enough money it would probably stay in the bank unless I could find a way to overcome my fears![]()
I want to find an art I can express my over whelming emotions in and share it with the world. I can hardly think of anything better then being able to share my inner most thoughts through an art form that can move and reach out to people. I could ask nothing more of life.

I understand this. Everybody needs an outlet. Do you write? I keep a blog, it's my outlet and I don't know how I managed without it. It's not overly personal, just a collection of thoughts. I'd recommend keeping one.
If you don't write... I totally understand what you mean about needing that expression. I'm full of admiration for those artists who can do what looks like a mere squiggle on a page but when you really look at it, you see so much more.
I absolutely, positively, undeniably don't want kids. BUT in 10 years time I will be 35 and a very different person, so who knows. I might already have a 9-year-old by then. Haha. So like you I don't want them now but who knows in the future. I hope you do get to have kids to a nice man.Having children one day. Or, if I don't find anyone to marry, I'd adopt. I don't want any kind of ties right now but I feel that in 10 years time or so I might feel differently and will need something more in life.
I do rarely write poetry as a outlet, not so much as an art. It's just a way to get my thoughts out. I've also had a few diaries. I never wrote in them consistently, just when I had thoughts I wanted to express.. Your right. It is a great way to release emotion. Even though I've hardly ever done it, I would suggest to anyone. I might actually try and do it more.
Artists of that nature absolutely amaze me as well. What they do adds amazing beauty and depth to the world.
