Mondo Beyondo

Last year Tulip Girl wrote about "the idea of a 'Mondo Beyondo List' for the new year. This is the list of all the wild and crazy dreams we have, the things that are so out there it is almost scary to write them down. This isn't a resolutions list of eating healthier and spending wiser. This is the mondo beyondo list, the ideas that tug at your heart and are almost out of reach even of day dreams."

I thought this idea was great, so Engineer Husband and I made our lists and talked about the dreams and totally unrealistic goals that we have and whether any of them could possibly, in the fulness of time, come true, or even partially true. I wasn't brave enough last year to post even a partial list on the internet.

But this year I think I'll do it. How about you? What are your "wild and crazy dreams"?
What ideas make your heart beat faster and your head immediately start listing reasons that make it impossible? Do you have any "mondo beyondo" hopes and fantasies?

Comments

Well I must confess, hubby and I "mondo beyondo" dream a lot, and actually try to pursue them...makes life pretty crazy! But it keeps us focused on what really matters to us. It's helped us realize very modest portions of many of our mondo beyondos in real life.

Here are a few dreams I'm not embarrassed to list:

*Read all of the books I want to read (will never, ever, happen)

*get an advanced degree or two (could possibly happen, way in the future)

*see a lot more of the world, not just as a tourist or sightseer but through mission work

*do a mega homeschool field trip -- a cross-country educational tour in an RV.

Can't wait to hear yours, Sherry!
