I dreamt about

  • Having fulfilling social relations
  • Getting a good education
  • Reasonable middle class financial security

But then mental health happened and fucked those up and left me as a tired, lonely and anxious mess with a hopeless debt.

:sadness:

I had a degree that I couldn’t finish because I ran out of money from not working full time.

I never had any grand dreams. Seriously none. I just wanted to be able to live and not worry about money - which sometimes is possible.

Now that I’m old however I kind of wish I had a kid… Its not really too late but its kinda getting there. Never wanted them before but yeah. Apparently thats something that happens when you get old.

I feel this one. In my teens and twenties the thought of having a kid terrified me, probably because I knew a lot of people who had kids waaaaaay before they were ready.

Now a lot of times I wonder who’s going to bury me.

I didn’t really “get it” til I watched my buddy who is a screwup like me raise his kid. That kid is absolutely amazing and the thought of raising a little communist is just too cool lol.
