Tired..

i think that would be great for you sammy :) i hope someday you do! but, i guess i really dont know what my goals are any more since my values / priorities have certainly changed. I used to be very ambitious. In terms of career i was planning on becoming an aerospace engineer. I had an entire plan laid out, internships i was going to go, clubs and activities to do and be involved in. I was gonna try and land a job at NASA, i knew that the senior scientists there would be retiring at just about the time i'd be finishing school, and i had the whole road map worked out. Personally, my goals were just simply to find that special someone, and start a family with them. other things were to get my license in practically everything, driving, motorcycle, pilot's, scuba diving, skydiving, boating, cwp, and i had gotten 2 almost 3 of those license's at the time  but that was then.. now, sorry to be a downer, but i honestly dont know if i have any besides the obvious. those seem so trivial now.. and i havent thought about "the future" in such a long time. i'lll try to come up wuth something though

I would not ask any more of life than just being able to breathe without breathing in poisons, and being able to think and feel and experience like a person has to to be a person, and to walk into the daylight without suffering in body and brain. I could have no talent no career no anything but the above and would be very very fortunate, unimaginably so.
Even with the poisoning and assault on my nervous system, over the years, very very slowly, I've inched my way forward in drawing and writing to some extent, and with the constraints off, this would go 50x faster. I'd go on long bicycle trips. I'd travel without plans, on foot with no money working as I go, if I had to.
After I get certain things out of my system, if well, I'd start up an Environmental Illness community/sanctuary for people whose lives and incomes have been devastated.
J-son, it would be a strange experience at NASA now. As I understand it, those who made all the breakthroughs there in the 60s are dying off, and they didn't keep thorough notes for some reason, and now the new people are having to rummage around at various places like junk yards, even, for old components from the old days at NASA to study and reverse-engineer them.

One day when my memory improves, I want to go to college with a double major or political science and history
Hi Keilia. At age 25 I developed a need to read and many different subjects and catch up on lost time... school really beat the desire to learn out of me, and I had to create that desire and drive to learn on my own. I got through 12 history texts on many obscure historical areas they don't teach in school so much... then the eye problem hit me. The series The West Wing made me realize that government is something that someone like me could understand given a chance. I'd like to learn many subjects but always with a critical eye, not just accepting the points of view of those 'teaching' me through books. That includes religion, everything. I think I could have a lot of useful ideas as long as I sidestep the preconceptions people absorb from authors or from anyone designated as an "expert".
