..it's not hard to fall, when you float like a cannonball..

i want to go overseas.

i want to see the world.

i want to experience everything our Lord has made.

i want to travel.

i want to see new things.

i want to meet new and interesting people.

i want to do things i'll never forget.

i want to make memories so wonderful that the note of one song or the glimpse of one photo or the sniff of one scent take me right back to that irreplaceable moment.

i want the world to be my oyster.

i want to swim in every ocean.

i want to climb every mountain.

i want to sit in every forest and breathe.

i want to gasp at every tall city.

i want to fall asleep to the sound of rain every night.

i want to meet someone from every single culture and country, and talk to them.

i want to rest in the bungalows, roam every resort, relax on every ship deck, recuperate in every snowy little town.

i want to pack up my bags and take them places dreams are made of.

i want to live out of a suitcase, backpack or bag.

i want to curl up with a pillow on every long distance train while it passes through the countryside quietly in the night.

i want to be by myself, with one person, with a few friends and everyone all at the same time.

i want to photograph every interesting thing i see.

i want to ride every rollercoaster.

i want to fish in every lake.

i want to eat the worlds best foods.

i want to get dirty while watching an elephant tend to it's baby in the shade of a tree.

i want to see every rock band, in every venue, in every corner of the room.

i want to give everything i have to the poor people on the street.

i want salvation for every person ever who have and will exist.

i want to sleep in every day and stay up every night.

i want to throw away my phone and call everyone i know.

i want to be the best i can in everything i do.

i want to be free.




but despite all of this:

i want a family.

i want to have a house in the suburbs, city, country, outback, hills, valleys or on an island.

i want to raise some kids.

i want a good income.

i want to sit and do nothing.

i want to study interesting thing.

i want to make some place my home.

i want to settle down somewhere.

i want to be able to afford everything i need.

i want to buy the best things for my future children so they are happy.

i want to teach them to be responsible.

i want to have a loving wife who treats me well, but is tough and keeps me in line.

i want to be safe and secure.



i want to go through with all of these things, but i don't know how.
