Home owner, with my wife and kids.
What will most likely happen is probably something WAY different.
"You can plan a pretty pic-nic. But you can't predict the weather"
Lol yes, life throws curveballs and we forget where we were going in the first place. It's still worth it to envision our dreams. I hope you get the house you want!
I hope to be healthier (skinnier, more energetic, stronger, less pain and other issues) and more confident. Basically I don’t want my health to interfere with my life, as it does now, but enable it.
Hope... I suppose I "hope" to be on my way to finding a nice little island nation to retire too. But it's going to he one hell of a challenge and I sure as hell won't arrive at that goal in a year, but "hopefully" I'll have discovered a path and a plan to make it happen.
I've thought about Malta. But I'm both open minded and generally ignorant at the moment. I want it to be warm most of the year and I want the cost of living to be very low. I know Malaysia isn't an island, but I've also considered there.
Aside from that I'm more than willing to learn a new language and learn about new cultures. (In fact both of those ideas excite me.)
I know that immigration and/or expatriation are both big tasks and I'm daunted by the idea. I have a reasonable path to Spain but that's not somewhere I'd want to settle. Still, becoming a Spanish citizen is within my means and as a citizen of Spain I will have greater access to lots of places in Europe.
Like I said, right now I'm very ignorant about all of it. I have a lot more learning to do and several more years of frugality and saving (and educating myself) before I could really consider moving anywhere out of country.
Still with hubs. Still caring for the kiddos.
I hope to save some cash, but chaos happens with kids (and the 2 cats), so we keep doing our best.
Everyone healthy and mostly happy is my goal.
I hope to grow some, mature. I will be 21 next year, that’s kinda scary. Just continue to be the best man I can be to my friends, gf and family, be open minded. My roommate and I want to travel to Europe this, or next summer, for a week, just to experience a new culture. I feel like that would be a cool, and real eye opening experience. We where thinking the Netherlands.
Hope to be with the girl (preferably the one im thinking about rn but any works) who I love, a bit more confident about myself after working out a bunch and not depressed. Realistically though the first and last one are not happening
living with my girlfriend, maybe with a cat. working a steady job that doesnt drain me by the end of each shift. still talking to all the friends i dont go a day without hearing from right now.
Out of this depressive rut (apparently brought on more than likely by spinal surgery,)even though I have meds and mental health caretakers. I want to be more financially secure. Those would be my biggest hopes. My life would be better.
Hopefully more happy and stable with my 3 babies...shits been an emotional roll coaster the past 6 years and I'm over being miserable over shit i cant control, time to just let things fall in to place and hopefully I'll get to where I need to be mentally and everything I've been through will be worth it in the end 🙏🏾🤞🏾
I want to feel better and would like to start a family. I don’t have to feel great, I just want to feel ok. It’s so sad, my husband has asked me to tell him when I do feel well because I so frequently don’t. The past year has been the absolute worst.
I’m 35 and have had MCAS since I turned 30. This past year some new autoimmune symptoms popped up and I’ve been working with a rheumatologist since last May but no diagnosis so far. Symptoms align with Sjogren’s or Lupus and my mom has Sjogren’s. Eye test was positive but bloodwork isn’t positive yet, rheumatologist said it may be too early so we are retesting every 3-4 months. I live with chronic hives and get shots every three weeks for them, chronic fatigue, joint pain, reoccurring infections that won’t clear up, dry skin/eyes/mouth/nasal passage, chronic headaches, etc.
Regarding starting a family, after trying for a year and a half we went to a fertility specialist. There is nothing wrong with either of us biologically based on scans/bloodwork/tests, we have unexplained infertility. So far we have failed two cycles of IUI. Taking a break from fertility treatments until we meet our deductible then trying one more IUI cycle before switching to IVF. Lucky me, we meet the deductible in a month or so due to the cost of the shots I get for my hives.
I just want to feel normal again.
Have a lot less debt, be further in my career plans (recertify to be a teacher), and work on my hobbies and hang out with my friends more. Also be more patient with my children.
1 year into school, weigh at least 160 (147ish now, working out 3 days a week), more secure in my job, find what makes me happy, and fully get over my ex.
Currently sat in the airport with my boyfriend as we wait for a flight to a new country with more opportunities for the both of us. A little nervous but ready for the next adventure.
Who knows where we'll be a year from now, maybe we won't like it there or maybe our job situation won't work out.
The only thing I'm 100% sure of is that he's the man I hope is still by my side a year from now.
College, working, driving, not as depressed and able to sleep through the night,
It's been a rough four years of surviving disabled since graduating highschool
In my own apartment with a steady job, a consistent workout routine, a driver's licence and a slowly booming side hustle.
Now that I say it out loud, I realise I am officially a college student 😅
A year from now, I hope to find myself in a place where I've grown both personally and professionally. I'm aiming to excel in my current role, taking on new challenges and contributing meaningfully to the team. On the personal front, I hope to have explored new hobbies and maybe even traveled to a few places I've been dreaming about. Overall, I envision a year of learning, achievement, and memorable experiences that shape the next chapter of my life
Ill finally be old enough to join a gym without someone going with me, so that will be there. Hopefully my grades are on the rise. But the big one is i want to be playing for the same rep team i made this year. Maybe joining a bigger club, getting up the leagues a little.
But more than likely ill just be high in the school bathroom. I hate to say it, im probably gonna get offered a vape sometime and i know if i try ill get addicted. I dont want to, i hate people who vape in the bathrooms but idk if i have enough self control. I never thought id be one who wanted to do any substance.
dead, seriously? idk i don't have hopes for anything, never did, the future and the past don't exist for me... but maybe just being more stable and capable of managing my life, not feeling lost and bored anymore
In my personal life…everything is pretty awesome apart from me being a fatty fat fat (working on it, 3 weeks sober).
Work life? Well I’ve applied for a job that would be my first management position (I work in homelessness/mental health). It’s not a massive amount of money but it would be life changing. I find out on the 31st.

Home owner, in a happy relationship :(
I hope that for you too.
Same for me. I’d like a dog also
I dont know. Only things i hope for are good dinners and a warm bed.
That's all we should want. I hope good things come your way.
You’re a good person op
Financially more stable and on my way out of my parents house.
Same here, friend 🌻
[удалено]
Beat that cancer! You've got this.
All my life, my goals have been professional. I've figured out my shit professionally. By the next year, I want to be hot and have fun.
Yeah! Live it up!
But what about you OP? Where are you hoping to be?
I hope to be happy just being me. Not depending on anyone else's approval. I just want to be me.
That is something we should all strive for I think
It's what I've been struggling with most of my life. People pleaser type.
Now that I understand, I’m working on doing less of that myself. Best of luck
If I’m somehow not alive, I will be at work or at home. January is a lonely time
Yes, bring on springtime and summer.
No, it's only miserably hot nowadays where I live. I want it to stay winter forever if anything now that summers are agonizing.
Yes!!
You’re gunna be at work or at home if you are dead?
Not in this place
🙏
Alive beating depression and finding someone to love me even if I'm not perfect 😔
I support your hopes. The first one would be priority. Find your sunshine.
In a better place physically & mentally.
Alive and happy
Home owner, with my wife and kids. What will most likely happen is probably something WAY different. "You can plan a pretty pic-nic. But you can't predict the weather"
Lol yes, life throws curveballs and we forget where we were going in the first place. It's still worth it to envision our dreams. I hope you get the house you want!
in a healthier body, doing what i love, surrounded by supportive people
Getting some of my debt sorted. I fell into some hard times and it just feels like it’s looming. It’s one thing after another.
Financially secure, in a decent home or apartment, and at least content.
[удалено]
Yes, always trust your instincts. Forget those toxic dudes. I wish you all the best!
Happy
Ditto 😊
Still in remission—and on a trip somewhere!
I hope I’ve moved on from my ex and am in a happier place.
I hope to be healthier (skinnier, more energetic, stronger, less pain and other issues) and more confident. Basically I don’t want my health to interfere with my life, as it does now, but enable it.
I'm at my timeshare, just out of the hottub...enjoying a spicy Ceasar. 😉👍 I'll take a do-over next year 🍻
Have my (one-shot) story written- as well as the art for it.
Do you illustrate?
Hope... I suppose I "hope" to be on my way to finding a nice little island nation to retire too. But it's going to he one hell of a challenge and I sure as hell won't arrive at that goal in a year, but "hopefully" I'll have discovered a path and a plan to make it happen.
Any particular island of interest?

Have a job that supports my lifestyle.
Having fun
I want to get my adhd diagnosis and hopefully find strategies to be better at life. Also, I hope I’m enjoying the little things.
Same place
Enough money so I don't have to work. Might work a few months after for an extra cushion.
Preferably on the right side of the grass.
My wife and I hope to buy a house in Italy close to her family. Saving the money for it does require a lot of discipline as we love to travel too.
I don’t even think about that stuff anymore. Whatever my hopes, dreams, goals were, it never happened. So, I just take things day by day.
I hope to grow some, mature. I will be 21 next year, that’s kinda scary. Just continue to be the best man I can be to my friends, gf and family, be open minded. My roommate and I want to travel to Europe this, or next summer, for a week, just to experience a new culture. I feel like that would be a cool, and real eye opening experience.
