Have this thought ever comes into your mind?? What would my destined path will be? Of course, it is up to us on how our lives come up in the future. But for now, I want to have my life be as simple as possible. I think I would stay single forever and help my family. That's what I can see myself in the future. But this is only my plan. It is still up to Him on what my life should be. But I guess, I'll also do my best to have a productive life. So, I must not merely depend on what my life would take me. But again, I lay my destiny to God. :)

Hei, don't leave everything to God and you sit idle. You can start taking decisions and if God wills, it will work out or else it will not. You should also know your destiny, how will be your future to a certain extend. Rest leave to Him.

This thought always comes into my mind. It scares me. I get worried everytime I think about it. I wish to be as productive as possible and hope that after 10 years and 20 years, life will just get better and better.

One thing I've noticed. Of all the comments I received, yours is the pessimistic one. I am also worried about my future but not so bad. I think we should be positive about our future. Think of good things to happen on you in such time. Dreaming about something isn't bad at all. Never let go of the things that you want to pursue. Make it as your inspiration to reach all of those. You can do it Butterscotsh!! :) Believe in your dreams and work out on it.. Same as you, I will also try my best to pursue what I want to be. We can do this!! :)

Yeah, actually and whatever i thought of in the past 10 year is not exactly what was happening now in my life... we obviously think too far ahead and too unrealistic. haha ;) But hey.. i am not losing hope and i know this is just merely a test of faith and i will still have a good life ahead of me. much better than what i had planned

That's so optimistic view of yours. And it's nice. :) I also do hope for a better life ahead of me. Well, that's all we want in life. However, I also realized that being so futuristic has also its negative effect. Thinking too hard on what's going to happen next in our lives may lead us not to enjoy the experiences we are having at the present. Anyway, I'm glad to know that you also lay your future to Him.. Thanks a lot for the comment.. have a great day ahead.. :)

I think about the future all the time, it's what keeps me going when times are tough. In ten years time, I want to have paid off all my debts and be running a successful company (or group of companies). I want all my friends to have good jobs working for me, and I want the resources to support my family. I want a nice house in the countryside, to be able to go on holiday anytime I want, and to be able to afford a ticket with Virgin Galactic. Someone to share all this good stuff with would be nice too. ;-)

Wow.. how I wish you could really pursue all these things. In life, we all really want to help our friends. Hopefully, I could also help my friends someday. I may not be able to have a company for them but I wish I could help in some other way. Like just being with them in times of problems and difficulties. Anyway, I do hope for the best of your plans in life. I'll be grateful if you would really pursue all of these goals of yours. It's so nice to know that you included your friends in your dreams. For me, that's so touching to know.. :)

It is really something that is really interesting to really think about right to say the least. Of course, a lot can really happen in the world, that will indirectly affect my life right in ten to twenty years. A lot can happen in a year as a matter of fact, so the future is anything but certain in this day and age. In ten years, we might be turning into a golden age of humanity or hell on earth. You just never know what is going to happen in the next few years, what is going to happen to humanity in general, never mind what is going to really happen right to me. I think that I'll just really do the best that I can really want to really do right out there. Just hope that things are going to really improve and in the next ten years, I'm a bit better. But the only thing for sure is nothing is for sure.

I like how you see things. Well, I just learned something from your post. Yes it's true nothings for sure now. But I also believe on the notion that, life is what you make it. Whatever decision you would take is up to you. But in God's plan, He will surely direct you to your destined path. Anyhow, it's great to have dreams and/or goals in life. At least you have something to be inspired of and hoped for. By the way, before I forgot.. Thanks a lot for the thoughts.. :)have a nice day ahead..

Yeah I often think about this. I try and visualize what things will be like and how my life will be. I wonder what type of work I will be doing then and what my family life will be like. I hope that in that length of time things will be well. I agree with you it is so much better to keep our life simple to the best of our ability. Having a simple life allows for us to be able to spend time with family and friends. I agree with you we have to do our part in order for our life to be what we would like it to be.

Thanks for the comment and for agreeing with my thoughts.. :) To sum it up.. Life is what you make it. Anyway, I wish that all our hopes in life would soon be come true. I usually imagine things too. Same as you, I also think of what would be my job in the future. I don't know if I would really pursue my take course in college. Or I will remain doing internet jobs.. hahaha.. But I hope I'll do both. I don't know, I wish God will allow me to have it both. However, I just want to do all the best I can now to pursue that dream. It's nice to have a goal in life, isn't it?? Anyway, I do hope for the best in your life Dominique.. :) Have a great day ahead..

Everyday I always makes my life meaningful and full of happiness as much as possible. Sometimes when I am alone at home I think about my future 10 years from now I want to have 3 lovely kids, well established work, beautiful house with garden and big kitchen, still with my husband and happily married. After 20 years I am hoping that my children will grow as a better person and with a good job. Also hoping that my husband and I can were still together, happy and in love.

So inspiring. :) I hope that all of these things would really do come true. I also wish for a simple life ahead. Just let me know by then 10 years later if all these wishes would really come true. Best wishes to you Bhebelen. Let's pursue whatever desires in life we have.. :)
