And they all lived happily ever after . . .

[Nirvanadragones]

If you could write your own " happy ending" what would it be? ( with "ending" I am not referring to the end of your life . . . ) If you could wave a magic wand right now and miraculously change some things in your life, what would you change, why, and how?

What would be the ideal solution / fix to some of the struggles and needs you have right now?

What would be your fairytale with you in the starring role?

 

[Salvor-Hardon]

Not so much a fairytale as a rags to riches story.

I want the freedom to pursue a variety of interests, to film a movie, build a plane, open an unusual boutique, customize the car of my dreams, go to places I dream of and when I find situations, mysteriously leave envelopes of hundred dollar bills to help people in tough spots.

I want to be able to leave my wife but not make her suffer in border line poverty, and indulge my children now and again when they make the breakthroughs in life I hope for them.

 

[Nirvanadragones]

. . . open an unusual boutique . . .

Pray tell, selling what? I have visions of Moulin Rough.

Right now at this exact moment in time, I just want our income tax refund to come in, my husband to get this new job, our house to sell, and for our sex life to get out of its rut. That would make me happy.

If my health got better - magically super better for just the next 5 months that would make the most amazing difference.
My head would clear, I'd get more than 3 useful hours in a day and I'd be able to get this dissertation finished, this last module of seminars done and my revision and exams over.

This work is hellish torture right now because I just can't do it. I'm too exhausted, so make me better please magic Nirvana fairy. Just for a little while so I can get this done.

Ok, I'm somewhat of a dreamer, so I'm going to go with it.

I imagine myself with large wings. It's my fondest dream. I could soar the free skies and help people who needed it.

In addition, the girl of my dreams would finally see me, and realize that I am the man of hers. I would sweep her off her feet and take her flying with me.

That's what I would want...

I wish I could

 

[impressive]

I want independence ... as in, I want my dependents to be in so that I can live MY life instead of biding my time.

The rest, I can make happen for myself. I've got all the magic I need for that.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

I would go back a couple of years, get a better job that pays twice to three times what I make now, and woo this one MILF that I used to know, until she agreed to marry me, and we would live happily ever after together.

Either that or I would become a vocalist or drummer in a metal band and tour the world playing shows and stuff

 

[Misty_Morning]

Geez, 4 months ago I would have said that my life is exactly the way I want it and I wouldn't change anything......


2 days ago I would have said my life has taken some unexpected turns that have led to me a place that I could only imagine in dreams....and again I would not change anything...

Today...I say....I wish I could go back to yesterday morning and not have made a certain phone call that resulted in immediate gratification but apparently destroyed my relationship with my gf....

So right now...I just want to be employed again and be able to stop hurting the people that I love... I guess I would want to change just about everything....

sometimes there are no happy endings....just more twists and turns....

You don't need wings to sweep someone off their feet. I think you'd be able to do that just fine

Then again, I can absolutely see you with powerful, strong wings.

What is stopping you from doing that now?

I'm asking, because I have a similar dream. I've always wanted to be a Club DJ. Sigh . . .

 

[cloudy]

I want someone to just disappear off the face of the earth *poof* It would make my entire life just so much easier and less complicated.

I want wolfie's contract for his book to come through soon, so he'll stop feeling worthless and his depression could lift some. I also want him to start paying attention to his health. If those things happened, we could spend more time discussing our future instead of me trying to persuade him to think positive, and not dwell on the fairly small obstacles.

I want to go home to California to live for the rest of my life. No place even comes close, and all it takes is a whiff of ocean air for it to come flooding back in my memory, and for me to become as homesick as I was the day I left.

I want peace and contentment for so many of my friends who are struggling. I think that would just about make me as happy as the things I have listed above.

Oh, and maid service.

 

[Salvor-Hardon]

Close, very very close actually.

In Athens GA, there was a shop, top floor of a renovated industrial building just called "The Boudoir". I thought it was a photography studio. It was lingerie. But the entire place was done like a series of large bedrooms, beds, couches, dressers, vanities, the works. It was like you were buying intimates out of someone's house.

I've thought it would be interesting, to do similar with sex toys. Very elegant in one room, almost erotic art pieces that can be used, then another room like a back stage dressing room for the clothes and costumes, another more austere bdsm specific area for furniture and implements, and also a comfortable "meeting area" for either classes or get togethers or small concert performances etc.

Weird I know but I think it would be interesting to see if it would work.

Well, my vocalist dream is ruined because I lost my voice a couple of years ago. I can't even sing an entire song without my throat becoming sore and scratchy, let alone scream the metal vocals that I was good at (I'm tone deaf too, so that puts a damper on things).

I never was a very good drummer either, as much as a practiced. That gets complicated by me not owning a drum kit anymore, as I don't have any place to put one, or the connections to get into a band that needs a mediocre drummer in the first place.

Would you still need that person to disappear if you were to move back to California? Or would that elimionate the need for said person to vanish? Or is that person what is keeping you from moving?

No, he still needs to go *poof* just for general purposes.

 

[Fallenfromgrace]

First of all, i'd move *counts* at least 3 people from their current homes in the world, to the places they really want to be/ to the people they want to be with. Yes, all are on lit.

Second, i'd give myself the motivation to study harder and put more effort and time into the 'right' things. I don't want to fast forward and have a PhD land in my lap...i want to be able to grow and learn with it- and so, just the motivation.

Third, i'd have my appearance altered.

4th, travel the world in a hot air balloon giving to those that need, what it is that they need.

 

[minsue]

I want to transplant my old job and my old house from the states over to here.

I want enough financial freedom
- so that my wife no longer has to work
- to be able to travel back and forth whenever we want so I won't miss out on seeing my nieces and nephew grow up
- to be able to ease the financial pinch on those we love

I want to find a way to get from home to Phoenix (and vice versa) in much much much less time.

 

[TheeGoatPig]

I changed my mind. I would help everyone here with real problems. My problems are trivial, and my own fault, and don't need fixing by a magical wand, and I'm tired of being selfish. I could fix most of my problems by myself. I'd like help the people who really need it instead.

That's true, but it's be awful hard to fly without them.

As for the sweeping part, well, maybe I should wish for some confidence and courage in that area. I know I could do it, but I have an absolutely terrifying and debilitating fear of women. This is especially true if I end up crushing on them, which often leads straight into infatuation. Ah well.
