Had some long-term goals, but I had to erase that blackboard and start over. It's still fuzzy.

In the near-term: study dyeing techniques and try to make something good/interesting. And then maybe make shirts out of it.

And try to write some poetry again (since childhood), when my brain is capable of it (which is not often).

I don't have any goals either. Not conscious ones anyway.

I suppose....

Be mentally more stable.
Financially less wobbly.
Be with the one I love.

And... something spiritual. But that's all clouds and mist right now.

A part time job, preferably as a backhoe loader operator. But, I need someone to give me this opportunity.

I used to not really have any "goals" per se, although I wanted a lot of money. After I read about Peter Thiel and Elon Musk, I felt rather motivated. Why not think big?

I honestly don't have any plans beyond the next few months.
I'd like to go back to school, but I'm not sure what to go for. Just the idea of going back to school feels overwhelming. I don't know what I want to do as a career. I have very low ambition to get a better job.

Let me think...

- move from EU to any less-commie part of the world (any suggestions?)
- travel to US, to see their National Parks, and to travel trough Road 66
- travel from Nordcapp to Gibraltar trough all the Europe
- visit Caribbean islands once more
- live somewhere where there is no winter, snow, cold, et cetera
- work as I'm working today - as a field-biologist - for the rest of my life
