I think I'd like to be married. More and more that seems to be on my mind. IF I am going to have children, I want to do it within the next 7-10. But I'd like to live with a man for a couple years before we have a child - it's important to me that my child has parents. Both of them.

I'd like to be making money in a job I enjoy, or at home, being a housewife. I would honestly and truly be content with that life. A part time job at a bookstore, being a good little housewife would suit me so well. I could paint and write and pamper my husband. Really, at the core, that's all I need. Someone to look after and time to do things I'd like to do, and little stress.

I second that motion. You basically painted my picture. Yet again we are all too alike.

To be loved and be in love; to nurture and support and to be nurtured and supported; to be the Yin and Yang, flowing eternally.

When I was little that was my dream, and I thought I found it when I married, but I was wrong. Because of that I have fled from the idea for so long, but since my grandmother passed in Nov. 2001, the thought has been lurking in the back of my head.

I would be content playing the role of housewife. Taking care of my (in)significant other and the kid(s) is my idea of being content. I want to be in a situation where I don't have to have a job because the physical restriction on me hinder my getting and keeping one.

I'd like to have a garden, and make my teas and herbal stuffs. I think that my desire for 5 years from now is a semi-rural haven where there are people, but not. I don't want to be in a suburban neighborhood. And I don't want a mini-van!!

That sums up my desire. :-)

Sometimes, thinking about it, I cry. I'm not sure where I'll be in 5 years. I can't see that far ahead. I don't know where I'll be next month, right now.

I know where I want to be, I just don't know how to get there. Ah, the cry of youth and just about every other stage in life.

In five years ... ah, lady, that is a question I ask myself everyday.
There are a variety of ways that I feel I could answer that, but you said to paint you a picture so here it goes.
In five years I will be far away from Memphis. Beyond that, I want to be a mother. If I am married, I want to be a stay at home mom with maybe a part time job in a library. If I am married, I want to be so in love with my husband that I will know when he is hurting, when he is happy and when he needs to be alone. I want to be able to sleep at night--if my children (and husband) are home safe. I want to be able to write what I want as I want to write it. I want a small home, it could even be an apartment, with a place for my children to play. I want to live each day as if it were the one perfect day and I want to be happy.
That is the best I can offer you at this moment and perhaps I will be able to fill in details later. *hugs* and blessed be, mo'caraid.
