Just had a discussion with a couple of work mates about want they wanted to be when they grew up kind of thing.

I wanted to be a rock star when i was a kid, the closest Ive come is local band. Played at Strawberry Feilds once but that was about it.

What yours?

I guess we all have our regrets, wanna-dones and what-ifs though .

I shouldda gone left or right or straight ahead or whatever . . . . . or met that other person or married that other girl/woman . . . . it's a morbid thought mobius .

Actually we can go quite moribund with this idea . . . if we let it get to us then we'd never make a decision or take a chance in life as we'd be all thinking the choices and variations or permutations that MIGHT not be the best choice .

If we just take each day as it comes and remember that tomorrow or yesterday is pretty much out of our hands, then we'd all be a lot healthier .

Fear or loathing of the unknown . . even the PAST unknown is just counter to productivity in this life .

This is where people find hope . . . hope in what happens tomorrow and that they hope they survive today to even see tomorrow .

Just a thought . . . . .

I was starting a life of sex drugs and rock n roll, well heavy metal really lol but things got pretty heavy and I went in a complete opposite direction, cut me hair and joined the army to straighten out. Instead the drug part just turned into alcohol:lol:

576472 2007-08-04 19:51:00 Well of course, like any normal kid, I wanted to rule the world. This hasn't happened yet, but I'm on the way to this modest ambition and when I achieve this, then it's on to bigger things.

The first thing to go, when I finally achieve my destiny and rule the planet, will be people with huge egos.

I wonder how many people dreamed of being a forum moderator when they were kids...?

That would be very possible using a site like MySpace.

576477 2007-08-04 21:37:00 My goal was to not have to work, I tried it a few times, Not having any money kinda ruined it, and was boring enough to make ya stupid after a couple of months.

My goal now is good health and a good enviorment for my family.

I think the title meant life goals, otherwise you might want to set your sites a bit higher maybe...:)
