Your BIG Dream - what do you REALLY want to do with your life? * 1
    #14531462 - 05/29/11 04:15 PM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Lets hear it guys, what is your BIG DREAM? Many of us have it, some are still unsure but have some idea.

What do you want to do with your life, if it were possible?
How sure are you that this is The Big One?
Is it a goal you work towards?
How big do you see your odds of succeeding?



This is a thread to dream out loud and discuss each others ideas to help each other further on the path.

NOT WELCOME in this thread are Burst-your-bubble Burt, Nihilistic Nancy and Debbie Downer, or any other trolls who try to dissuade you or otherwise put you off. These are peoples big dreams, have some respect.

If you are not sure, read discuss and above all think what COULD be the big dream for you, the thing your lifes road seems to point towards. It can be epic or really small, but it has to be what you REALLY want. If you don't wantr to tell us, at least work on your image of how you want it to be like and how to get there.

Travel the world organizing free parties whilst doing a little bit of chemistry on the side and share it with the masses.

Own a coffeeshop :lol:

It's something i'm working on I guess... I make music, i'm going to do chemistry education and I already know a few groups of people whom do things like that... But really it's never going to happen.

But no there is no one ONE big thing that I would like to do, what I really want to do with my life is just living it. Being the observant that I have always been and just let the time pass. I want to learn and I want to keep learning... whether it's another language or how you can weld. How to draw or understanding economics, arts, our history, ... you get the point, there's always something you can learn :smile:.

Knowledge is power :happyweed:

My biggest dream is to somehow find a cure for schizophrenia, or do research into the therapeutic uses of psychedelics. Farfetched I know but it's a dream.

Open a business, hopefully a dispensary(or growing for a dispensary).

I would also like to own a large amount of land somewhere in the GA/NC/SC area.

However my biggest goal would be to move back in with the love of my life and get a nice house on a private island in the Florida keys.

Whatever is meant to happen will happen. I would hope that I am able to continue to manifest music until the day I cease to exist, spreading good vibrations, joy and awareness to all otherselves through this music, further explore the divine through entheogens and other spiritual practices in as many ways as possible until the day I die, and do what I can to raise the planetary vibrations so as to allow a positive harvest for all, thats all I hope for.

Finish my engineering degree and work a decent job for 10 years or so.  I want to save enough money to be able to live off my investments.  I plan to buy real estate, and rent it out at a premium (or I may even look to flip houses if the market is stable enough).  Once I can safely depend on the interest/profits from those investments, I'll quit my job and travel the world.  I want to see the weird corners of this crazy ass world before my time is up, and I damn sure don't want to have to work my whole life to be able to do so.  So I plan on being smart with my money, and have it work for me after a decade or so of saving.  I can live rather easily off 35k a year, especially if I'm always moving.  I might even move out West and start a compassionate grow in the future.

tl;dr make a lot of money through investments, retire early as fuck, travel and party and do dr00gz.

All my life there have been several trends such as putting a lot of energy in helping people and deriving a lot of personal satisfaction out of successfully helping. Its one of my main reasons for being on this planet.

If the moment comes I will go to Africa and there either join a charity taking care of orphans (picture orphans in a third world country with AIDS figures into the double digits of the population. You may not realize but every big African country has MILLIONS of orphans, often homeless) or do some organisatorial magic and start my own. I have several skills (such as teaching, counseling, medical knowledge, people skills, sharp wits etc) which are VERY useful in an unpaid allround volunteer.

I'm working towards it, have overcome several hurdles and hope to overcome the last ones and get "the nudge" from my intuition and I'll go.

Putting my life in service of those who need it most is the best thing I feel I can do with my life. If I "get rich" its to help others, personal wealth doesnt interest me. Biggest thing holding me back now is a need to harden my psychology to be better able to cope with the suffering of others. Children are going to die in front of me, thats not something you can just shrug off, at least I cant. Then, I'm working hard to acquire needed additional skills, lose weight etc.

The financial side of things isnt a big issue. I'm not rich at all but what I have is firmly secured in tangibles such as precious metals, so I can afford to drop out of my current life and take that planeride, fund myself for some years locally (a little money goes a loooong way there, in current money 1 ounce of gold ($1500) is enough to sustain your life there a full year if you're not there to amuse yourself, and if said charity provides me with food and a room that one krugerrand could stretch across 2 years.

If I set up a financial support system (even some shroomerites might be interested in being a smalltime benefactor once they have proof its not BS and one of the admins is actually doing this and keeps y'all posted with photo-heavy "trip reports" of those activities) its even easier to exert a much greater influence on goings on and help more people.

My friends & family would back me 100% and there'd be visits back and forth, i'll miss the heck out of em but its been discussed and its a Higher Purpose.

Backup plan is not going myself, but organizing a global charity through the www directly sponsering such existing orgs.

One of the things I do RIGHT NOW is financially sponsoring several of those orgs, one you can find in my signature, Amani

But helping others help is not enough, I really want to get there and do it myself as well. Sorry to go religious but, this is God's Work plain and simple. There is no higher goal that I can think of than to help as many people you can in the journey of life, in as significant a way you possibly can.

Well, I guess making more art and writing is a big thing for me.
But what's even more important is realizing that nothing matters, my dreams may seem important to me, but I'm not finite. It won't really matter even if I became the most mind-blowing artist/writer in the world. The system of life that I am in that I could change for the better will someday fade away into the the ultimate void of nothingness. Plus, there isn't a real "better" or "good" or "bad". It's an illusion.
:feelsgoodman::feelsbadman:, and  :feelsweirdman: are all illusions.
There is only:
I'm an existentialist. :shrug:

Have a spot of land somewhere not in the continental US and be self sustaining/off grid.
I feel I am working towards it everyday but I stray from the path often.

But I am down for anything as long as I find a way to be happy. I guess my main goal is existing and creating for the rest of my life.



Life, yo :thumbup:

I'd like to get a van a travel from my country to Goa (getting my drivers license exam this Wednesday).
I'd also like to visit Mexico for it's entheogenic culture and richness.
And I'd like to do anything in my power to help animals in need.
In terms of scientific knowledge botany, ethnobotany and micology have been my focuses lately and in terms of activism environmentalist.
