| When you have something that you dreamed in your entire life, do you still want to chase it? Or you lose hope and forget about your dream? |
 |
| Well that's a nice thought. But they probably look at their phone because people are addicted to their cell phones. |

| dreamt i could fly...broke a leg...gave up hope |
| ..this space under construction... |
| Easy, I live in a dream. I don't think dreams are something we reach and that's it, they're always with us. You've got to dream and envision; life's otherwise empty, boring and unproductive. |
| I kinda started living mine. Lets see how it will end up... |
| I'd always wanted to be some sort of a scientist. I'm pursuing that dream right now. Also, Sic said: You've got to dream and envision; life's otherwise empty, boring and unproductive. I couldn't agree more. If you don't erect goals in your life, regardless of whether you end up achieving them, you will lead a very dull life. |
Hitchens said: I'd always wanted to be some sort of a scientist. I'm pursuing that dream right now. Same here! The best part about that dream is that there are always things waiting to be discovered. |

| Here was my brother's dream: Wait for it, wait for it. BEING A FIRETRUCK. |
| I don't really have any. If you ask me, hope is the first step on the road to disappointment, so I'd rather eschew any dreams or plans for the future and just focus on keeping myself entertained on a day to day basis. Also if it's impossible to reach, then I'd rather call it a fantasy, like, sure I'd want to be a interstellar explorer and find lots of cool alien ruins and shit, but we all know that's not going to happen anytime soon. |

| i always wanted to be a professor. but silly me got a BA and went to Connecticut with my now ex-husban and settled into a shit job. Back then i definitely had the potential. now my brain is rotted and i'd have to read volumes of complex theory to catch up. i think i give up :( tho now i would like to be an addiction counselor. pays shit, but it hits close to home. they say its a miserable profession b/c you will start to care about your patients and then they will relapse and bottom out. a bit grim. |

Neither of those are impossible, you can definitely do it if you try too. |

| I have dreams but I stopped chasing them because I'm quite satisfied with my life for now. Also, this. Kaiinel said: If you think your dreams are impossible to reach, then dream more realistically. |

| Most people, if not all, have at least some extremely unrealistic goals. We vastly overestimate our own abilities, and the influence that those abilities have on the result, while we negate the importance of chance. You very well may have the skills to accomplish something, but that by no means suggests that it's likely you actually will. Often the bigger the accomplishment, the higher the uncertainty. It's called the illusion of control, or planners fallacy. We picture the end goal and imagine feasible means to get there, disregarding all relevant information that might suggest failure. This is why, most of the time, estimated costs for buildings, renovations, etc. are ridiculously wrong. (actual costs are much higher) The worst part is that even most people who understand this, including myself (although I wouldn't say I have a great understanding of it), still conform to it. I refuse to let go of certain dreams that I know are statistically unlikely. |

NicoleB said: Post-Josh said: I refuse to let go of certain dreams that I know are statistically unlikely. And you shouldn't. Because it doesn't really matter how unrealistic something is. That's the problem though. We all agree on something that is clearly irrational, haha. Of course, you could argue that you can't quantify the value of "chasing your dreams" even if you don't succeed, or something like that. |

| When a person gives up on their dreams, they've given up on their reason for living. My three dreams are going to UW/living in Seattle (which I am right now), going to Burning Man at least once, and going to every country in Europe. My Europe dream isn't very realistic, but it gives me something to look forward to. Even as far to say that it gives me something to live for. |

| "Dreams" sounds awful, I'm a realistic person, I don't have dreams, I have goals and an objective in my life More important, if you are not happy with who you are and what you have right now, you will definitely not be happy when you reach your "dream" |
 |
| my other dream is to live in Cape Cod. Lower. Where you will never find a job and shopkeepers in PTown struggle to merely exist. this might be harder than becoming a professor ^^ hehe |
NicoleB said: Ryokami said: It's certainly not as easy as you might think. And it's definitely not as difficult as she thinks. I plan on going to Europe no matter what. It's just the "every country" part that's going to be really difficult. |

| dream isn't something we must reach, dream is a tool for boosting our motivation. |

You could only say that if you knew his lifespan and the collective rate of innovation of Humanity. I still think it is possible, although I must admit it does seem somewhat unlikely. It is impossible by definition. I mentioned faster than light travel - this is impossible in every sense of the word. This speed limit cannot be violated by anything whatever. The tunneling bit is plausible, apparently, but I don't know much about it to be sure. But disregarding all that, how do you figure I'll get to orgy-land? |
