While struggling with writer’s block, I decided to resort to Google Images for advice on what to write for this week’s magazine. One writing prompt I found interesting was: “flesh out the ideal dream that you would like to experience tonight.”
I found this prompt the most interesting because lately I have been struggling with figuring out who I am, my skills, and what I want to do with my life (considering I have almost one year left before college graduation).
So with the prompt in mind, here goes my ideal dream for tonight:
As I sit in my dorm room, I plan out my schedule while listening to Lauv. I suddenly experience a shock in my chest that spreads to my mind. The shock transports me into the future where I am seen living a bright life with happiness radiating from my future body. I’m working a job that I love with co-workers, and a boss that I’m not only fond of but would consider each other family.
I see myself settled down in a beautiful and safe neighborhood (as safe as any place can be), living in a modern, but historical two-story house with plenty of space, and guest rooms for friends and family. I have one room furnished and painted for my soon-to-be adoptive child’s room. As of the moment, I sit in the living room procrastinating on the color and furniture for the room to make the house look cozy and safe.
As the vision of my future beautifully fades away, it is in that moment I am clear on what I want to do with myself. I see who I shall become; a strong independent woman who may not have the world figured out, but she is working on herself while working a job she loves, and life could not be any better.
That would be my ideal dream tonight. What would yours be?
