mangofandangoDreams - as in sleep or as in aspirations? I ASK AGAIN.
Let's split the difference. Lately, I don't remember my dreams. I used to, and as a teenager I kept a dream journal and worked on lucid dreaming and everything. But not so much now that my sleep is the way it is. Sometimes I remember one from my last stretch of sleep in the morning, though. This morning I dreamed about taking Sophie and some other baby to a farm to harvest something, and the farmers wanted to feed us Chinese food. ;)
Aspirations! You know, I need to figure out what those are at this point in my life. I have the big things I wanted for the moment, really. I'm like, the queen of wanting things - but as far as actual goals and loftier hope for the future, it's both simple and uncertain. I know, of course, that I aspire to be a good parent and to raise a happy, healthy daughter with whom I maintain a good relationship. Same goes for maintaining a happy marriage and family life and all of that obvious stuff. From there though, I'm not sure. I have mixed feelings about going back to work - when, how much, under what conditions, etc. I think my current work aspiration is to be a part-time school librarian at some point in the future, maybe next fall. :)
But other things I aspire to/dream about/look forward to: getting back into regular yoga practice, traveling, sleeping through the night ;), learning functional Italian, making awesome soap, creating a better OPAC system (library nerdiness), having more money, having more free time. I want to read more books, and explore more in general, and keep growing. Right now I feel like my goals are mostly small, but I think that is okay. I am mostly very happy, I just want to enrich my life and be able to relax a bit more in general.
