I wish my bf and I find a way to get visas for my/his country and that we would be allowed to be together. And that we find a solution when it comes to jobs, apartment and where to live. I just want to spend time wiht him without having to say good-bye all the time and all these troubles and money oe see each other for some weeks only .

so what was the verdict? can you stay there over Christmas?

I am already back home . I cannot find any words to express how sad I am .

I want to win the lottery - the Euro lottery of course

Then I would look after my family and my parents

I would buy a big house with another house in the grounds for my parents and look after them and they woudl not want for anything.

Take the family abroad every year and take my Mum to Italy shopping.

Set up Trust Funds for my grandkids and pay for their further education.

I would make sure that my immediate family are going to be looked after financially

Give my brother and sisters money so they have it easy for a while and no worries.

Give to the charity Hydrocephaleus and Spina Bifida - because they helped so much when my son was very ill and died.

Give to cancer charity.

Also take in another dog from a shelter.

Well that might work for me too. Then I could probably just travel from country to country with my bf for as long as they allow us to stay in these countries without visas.

Someone once came up with the concept of not winning a billion dollars or whatever but instead you would never have any money, but you'd never want for anything either. If you were hungry, there would be food. If you wanted to travel, you'd be able to get on the plane, etc.

I find that idea to be so very freeing. If I never had to worry about money or the basic needs in life, heck, more than basic needs - being comfortable - what would I do with myself? How would I spend my time?

Yeah, me three. The thought of having a lot of money doesn't thrill me at all, I'd give it all to my parents apart from a sum that would financially enable me to dedicate myself to what I really love, which is a very expensive thing... I don't need anything else.

But I don't even play, so ... xD

I don't care at all about luxury, I just would want money to buy plane tickets to see each other, to prove to governments that we can support ourselves so that we are allowed to stay in the country or to travel somewhere else if we are not allowed to stay. And to have enough to live half year in Trinidad and half year in Austria and to still be able to pay my bills .

But just like you I don't even play

I couldn't care less about luxury. Actually, doing what one loves and being happy seems to be a great luxury in this world, to put it that way.

Yeah

Yeah

Well said. And to be with the one you love.

I didn't have any money problems for the longest time and could always afford the things I wanted even though I always tried to not spend money without a good reason. But I would be really happy to live in that little house in Trinidad without water and electricity, drive in his jeep that is falling apart instead of the Mercedes of my ex and help David with producing and selling his art on the beach. Knowing quite well that most people think I am completely crazy to live like that and follow my heart.

Well, I put that on hold, somehow. I feel I'll be very fullfilled once I'm able to practice dance seriously every day and that everything else (if needed) will follow naturally because dancing seems to be fundamental for my well-being. A union with someone else is kinda too much to think about right now, until I have a stable union with myself. Or, as somebody once said - when there's no more "me" and "myself" (or whatever are the right pronouns to use); when you don't need a relationship with your inner self because you are simply living in harmony with it.

You should just continue not caring about what people say. But I'm sure you're aware of that.

It wouldn't even be for myself. I'd wish for true harmony and unity amongst all people.

I try to not give a shit about what people say who don't have any insight at all .

And I understand what you mean. I was talking about a situation when you are apart from somebody you love, like what I am going through right now. But when you are fullfilled with what you do and find a "healthy relationship" with yourself (sorry cannot express it any better in English ) then that's wonderful and IMO the best situation to maybe find your special someone whenever it is meant to happen. Looking for someone is never good and finding something else apart from a relationship that fullfilles you and makes you happy is the best thing to do . Thank God you are brave enough to go for it and follow your dreams even though it is hard road ahead of you .

Sure, sure. I just made a comment about my own situation from my perspective.

Aww, thank you

At the moment, I wish my idiot neighbor's mutt would stop barking.

my mother was alive

I feel for you. My mother passed this time last year. Back then I did not have time to think about it... but now I am having more issues with it than I thought I would have. We had some issues in our relationship for YEARS! I had not seen her in about 3 years and I had talked to her twice in over a year. We talked a few weeks before Christmas and then on Christmas day and had a massive stroke on the 26th and passed on the 31st. anyway... sorry for all the gloom.

but for you that have your parents or family that you have had issues with do not let the time get away from you until it is too late. No matter how long it has been reach out.
