1. I would love a hug from Mr. Carrey (It'll never happen, but a woman can dream can't she?

2. I want to ride a horse bareback, like I did when I was a teenager

3. I want to take my daughter to an Amusement Park (Magic Mountain or Disneyland) before she gets too old to enjoy it.

4. I want to try screenwriting (comedy/drama, specificially in rewrites and edits)

5. I want the last two years of my life to disappear, it hurts too much to remember the bad stuff.

6. I want to move to a new city!

7. I want to feel my savior as He eases my burdon, love and sensitivity and forgiveness. Three magic words.

... the rest is up to God because I get new dreams every day

[Alyonushka]

You know guys.
I'm so suffering now. From the cultural shock and all that stuff... feeling frustrated all the time and... crying, crying, crying!!!! A-a-a-a-a-a!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And all this stuff because I had a lot of dreams. To be a famous writer, film director, to visit America, to live in Santa Monica...

...and Jim, too.

But now I imagine myself in Jim's hands crying:"A-a-a, fuck you, Jim, I want to my mommy!!!!!"

[fluffy]

but Aly.............you have all the time in the world to make your dreams come true.................
you have made the first step..............you are in the USA...........

You are just a little homesick.................it'll pass....
Isn't there some sort of Russian society in New York......where you can go and make friends with fellow Ruskies??

Don't give up the dreams just yet.........

1. I want to be in a punk/alternative band.

2. Someday, I NEED to surf a crowd.

3. I would so love to see Jim surfing a crowd at one of my shows (that one is almost as unlikely as sprouting wings and flying to Mars).

4. Quit smoking. Quit smoking. Quit smoking.

5. Provide an organized and stable life for my 6 year old daughter.

We are suffering, Priya, from our dreams and desires. That's a buddhist wisdom.

I always suffer from my desires. Once I desired to enter the University for free (In Russia we have rights to receive a higher education for free but with a great contest). I entered, but when I appeared in the city, alone, without mom and dad, being 17 years old, I exclaimed, what's the ..!! Where am I??!
I considered it like a step to my other desires.
I wanted to go abroad, to the States (a very banal thing), I thought it would help me to reach my another dreams. And what now?!! today I'm ok, but if you saw me the previous days, you would say, oh Alena, what's going on with you?!!

I dreamed about visiting New York, I dreamed about living in Santa Monica, about having a flat in Manhattan, I dreamed about glory, about being famous for all the world. And what I have? Every time I reach my dreams, I feel frustrated, my dreams always turn their another side. But why dreaming? My good friend seriously dreamed about being a film director too and now she is found raped with a cut throat. So why dreaming?

[jimliker]

u r right Alyonushka that we are suffering from our dreams and desires

But sometimes v suffer from some emotional disturbances which is caused by some long term ailment.....i just want to ask God what mistakes i made so that i dont regret this sufferring & i get strength to bear it. I dont wanna repeat my mistakes & want to be careful.

If we give up our dreams, then what do we have to live for?

It's our dreams that keep us going. Dreams give us a goal in life. Without dreams, it's like travelling on a long and windy road without a map.

Please don't ever give up on pursuing your dreams. Maybe stop and reflect on why you dream the things you do. What is your reason for this? Is it for fame? money? Then yes, maybe stop dreaming. Materialism will never make you happy.

But if you are pursuing something that you love, or have a passion for, then never give up.

Just look at Jim. For almost a decade, he was doing stand-up comedy in Toronto and then LA, trying to pursue an acting career and nothing was taking off for him. But he kept going, and then one crappy movie called Earth Girls are Easy, caught the attention of one of the Wayan brothers, and he got into the show, In Living Colour. And the rest is history.

Success doesn't happen over night. Every successful person started off with a dream.

Don't ever give up. It's not easy to stick to something for a long time, especially if you're always disappointed, but it's worth it in the end.
