We all have an idea of what would make our world perfect, our existence peaceful and our situation ideal.

What do you need for your perfect world?

What is lacking or what are you working towards?

:)

This doesn't have to be BDSM related, hence posting at the cafe.
 
In my ideal world, I would already be living with Snooze. Between us, we would have enough money to meet all of our needs and most of our "wants". We'd have time to spend just with each other as well as time with family and friends. We could occasionally travel to meet other friends from Lit who live far from us. Our dungeon/boom boom room would have some special "furniture" and would be well organised to make access to toys easy during scenes.

If life were really perfect, neither of us would have to work. Gotta win the lottery to make that happen though. LOL
 
Have to agree with Des though I would modify the not work idea to being able to work where I felt most useful and saw a result from that work. And the overarching thing for me would be world peace and freedom from poverty, discrimination, and famine, which as clichey as it sounds, is me.

Edited to add: LOL..of course I am not moving in on Des's territory, I would be happy to stay 24/7 with Francisco.:D
 
I love these kind of questions.

LOL.

the usual gamut of "beauty queen" answers...world peace, blah blah blah.

Now, down to the realllll answers.

In a perfect world? First and foremost, Sir would already be living here.

In a perfect world, I would have the cash to choose whether I wished to work/not work, invest wisely, and live VERY comfortably off the interest, having the ability to travel widely and live well. In a perfect world....Sir and I would more than likely live in Europe for 6 or more months of the year, maintaining a residence here. He and I would have a circle of friends in the lifestyle that we interracted socially with in both places.

In a perfect world, I would have a hobby. :D

Soooo. Where am I, on all this stuff??

LOL. REALITY CHECK!!

Sir will be moving down in a few months. :D

I don't play the lottery, have no long-lost rich relatives, so my chances on the cash thing are prettttttty slim. *grin* Pipe dream, fun to talk about, completely unrealistic.

The circle of friends? Slowly but surely developing, even though they are spread out over much of the country. I'd like to meet people around here in the lifestyle, we'll see what develops once He moves down.

The hobby? LOL. I'm working on that actually. Thanks Catalina!!

You're welcome, but what's this beauty queen title you award me?!! Didn't know you cared so much.http://users.pandora.be/eforum/emoticons4u/crazy/blush_tweetz.gif Seriously though, those issues are what keep my world view clouded, but I doubt are about to change in the near future.

LMAO!! You are beautiful luv!! But what I was referring to, is the stereotypical "Miss America" beauty pageant answers to such a question as posed in this thread *snickering madly* ..... the answer is always ..... "world peace". Have you ever seen the Sandra Bullock move "Miss Congeniality"? There's a funny bit in there about the whole "world peace" thing....

/minor hijack over/

And...I really do wish that we could have some friggin peace, somewhere. *sigh*

You naughty girl. LOL Oh well, back to work for this subbie. See you guys in a few hours.
 
In a perfect world I wouldn't have to put my child in daycare. I don't mind work, and I don't need to be rich.* I hate that my son doesn't have me around when I think he needs me.

Yeah, in a perfect world I would have a much different relationship with my husband, but for some reason that doesn't bother me as much as the daycare thing does.

*(but I wouldn't turn down large amounts of cash)
 
Ideally?
I'd have enough money to contribute to a meaningful partnership full time with my PoutyKitten and hopefully a happy 3rd party and maybe some kids while being able to work on my photography and writing

I could continue to be active in both the pagan and BDSM communities, promotiong awareness and helping new people learn about them

The "enough money"* part doesn't mean I wouldn't work, just that I'd be doing something I enjoyed that didn't take ALL my time and energy or making enough with my writing & pics to cover expenses and support my family

What am I doing towards it? Sheath and a few others here at Lit have gotten me going on working on my writing again...a few friends and one ghost are pushing me on doing something with my pics

I'm continuing to work teaching paganism 101 on AOL's inline pagan forum and have gotten back in to my locla pagan group

I've taken on a larger role in organizing & running the Bash this year (the bigest longest running leather convention in Florida)

And I am pursuing a promotion that would (eventually) let me establish myself in a better place financially to achieve some of my goals

Now I just need to GET the promotion or find other areas to pursue job wise, get my Pouty and I situated where we can be together full time, and maybe find that 3rd party

And I should probably shut up now LOL

*(but like red says, I wouldn't turn down large sums of cash!)

Ya, that is tough.

I wish we could clone ourselves.

But, in the long run, it is good for our children to learn to identify others' who can meet some or their needs.

My kids began F/t daycare when they were ten weeks old. It was really difficult. In the long run, it actually has been a benefit to them as they can assimilate to change very well and learned to socialize, share etc at a young age. That doesn't mean they would always do it though! :D

Great scene!

:)

World peace is a nice thought, but isn't realistic, unfortunately.

I really enjoy how everyone is gearing their answers toward their own lives and then discussing how they are working toward their "perfect world."

The reason this thread came to mind was because I was sitting at home, rather blissful yesterday.

A few months ago, I would have said that my perfect world would have included new housing, a better job and the right man in my life. It would have included a good school for my children and my son feeling confident about school, rather than frustrated.

Housing : check
Job: check
Partner: check
School: check

I got it all! But then, that means my goals have been readjusted. So, now, I would say that my perfect world would include scooter with me all the time, a new vehicle, and for myself to be more assimilated into my new community.

All of these things are works in progress, but does it mean that I am never going to be satisfied? I reached my previous goals, and now have more!

(Brain fart: The first set of goals had more to do with the very bottom of the Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, the essential needs. Perhaps, we readjust our goals to attain sefl actualization? )
 
in a perfect world, i'd have a magic flying pony! in fact, i'd have a huge castle with a huge courtyard and the pony would hang out there and all kinds of other animals would too! especially a thousand bunnies.

then i'd come visit you guys on my pony!
