I am one of those people that is constantly dreaming up dreams, but is not proactive at chasing them.
The biggest dream I had since a child was that I wanted to be a performer. You know, sing, dance, act, the whole nine yards. I don't think my parents were very supportive of that dream because despite me asking for acting lessons and such, they never did take me. Eventually as I got older, I tried some things as a teenager but quickly realized I didn't have much of the raw talent and charisma as others, so I started to give up hope. Then my anxiety started to get in the way and now I have no time to practice instruments I learned how to play. I did join the church choir at one point, but then I started to get shortness of breath (from allergies) and sitting infront of the church during the whole service did no good to my anxiety, so I quit.
My other (grown up) dream was to get my BA degree. I could always find time to go back to school (I am still young enough) but I don't even really know for what. I lean more towards English since it would involve alot of what I like, but I am afraid a degree like that would be a waste of time and money. At least I have an AA degree I guess.
