what do you want out of life

what do you want out of life?
I am just monthes away from graduating from highschool so of course I have been thinking a lot lately about what I want to do with the rest of my life and while most of my friends are thinking of things like "I want to be a nurse" or "I want to go to hair dresser school" etc, and while I have done that too to a certain degree, I have been thinking a lot more about things like that I want to be happy, not worry about money all the time, and be able to do things that I love. I then made a list of all the things I love to do and that make me happy and I soon started to realize that I could go to university and get a regular 9-5 job like everyone else or I can travel, teach english, volunteer, and do things like WWOOF (free volunteering on organic farms in exchange for food) and I'd be happy doing that. basically, what I want out of life is to be happy, free to be spontanious, not tied down, active, be able to spend time outside, get to try new things and learn about things that we dont even think about in Canada. What do you (really) want out of life and what are you doing to make that happen?

the problem with being happy is that its only good in short spurts. your age plays a very large roll in your happiness. your still young, you still have a lot to learn about how the world works, about how life works, about your self. what you want today may not be what you want 10 years from now. today you just want to make money doing what you love to do, and that is great. but how long till you get bored with that? how long till you want to do something else? the truth is you have to be happy in your heart, the rest will fall into place.

I want to have enough not to live from hand to mouth. I want children to raise to be better people than I am. I need to see as much of humanity's life on this planet as possible, to understand our strengths and weaknesses. I want to learn everything that I possibly can, in every field. I want whatever I do to make my living, or as an avocation, to be important to solving our problems or improving humanity's conditions . I'd like to live long enough to see my children surpass everything I've accomplished. I'd like most people who know me to respect me, even if they don't particularly like or love me. I'd like to be a "big enough person" to not hate, even those who might hate me.

When I was 21 I sold all my possessions and moved to Oregon. I joined up with a Christian fellowship up there called Shiloh. I worked hard in tree nurseries, picked apples for Johnny Appleseed in Mallot, Washington, taught Sunday school at the house I lived in, spent two months going to Bible school on the property we had in Dexter, Oregon, lived all over the US and all I had was my sleeping bag and a few articles of clothing. Even though I'd been taken advantage of like so many others in this ministry, I learned a valuable lesson in life and I had fun doing it. I did this for two years. There's nothing wrong with taking some time off but make sure that it's the right thing for you. I don't recommend anyone joining up with some cult and be careful for there are plenty of them out there. I did some research on this one and found out that it was what I wanted to do. I want to have a closer relationship with Jesus Christ more than anything in this world. Thanks for asking. :)

Should I let my boyfriend join the military

Should I let my boyfriend join the military?
So, don't ask don't tell was repealed just a few hours ago and my boyfriend found out instantly and told me he would like to join. In his family, there are a line of men who served in the air force... so he's pretty much been indoctrinated into serving. The problem is we just bought a condo together in cash and have barely started furnishing it. I have an associates degree in psychology and i'm currently back in school, enrolled in the RN (registered nurse) program. To become a surgical RN. I feel like him joining will ruin our plans of finishing the condo and stunt my ability to commit full time to the program. But even worse, I want to move to Canada eventually (within the next 6 years) and him joining would probably bind me and cause me to stay in America. I'm only 18, and he's 23. I feel like this situation is really emphasizing the age gap between us. Should I try my hardest and convince him other wise? Or just accept it and see if it ruins our goals or relationship? Or is there really an alternative?

You need to talk to HIM about this. Personally I wouldn't want my boyfriend/girlfriend joining the military because it's against my beliefs.
2 :
I think if you two plan on staying together for awhile, then you both need to consider each other's lives. Him joining the military doesn't mean that he'll be in Iraq. He'll have to do his basic training but other than that, he can work on a base near by. If he enlists it's only for a min of I think 8 years maybe 6. Talk to him about it.
3 :
i would explain to him exactly how you feel and you guys could figure things out together, maybe make a compromise because both of your happiness is important not just his and not just yours. personally i wouldn't want my boyfriend joining the military because i am against it. i believe we should be able to talk things though and the only time we should fight is if people in a certain country are being mistreated by there government and need help. like woman in foreign countries who are being mistreated. or gays.
4 :
in my point of view, if you feel that his conscript will ruin your mutual plans i think you must convince him to change his mind. Try to enlighten him with detailed points against joining the Army. As for me I dissuade my husband of being a millitant as I think if you are not going to be a general then it doesnt worth it.
5 :
if he joins he joins and there is nothing you can do about it. married the perks are decent for the couple in the AF you can rent or sell the condo after basic he will know where he will be and you can start school there transferring your credits Canada could be a whole different matter. Need to check that out. After initial enlistment completed Canada possible or after his retirement
6 :
There's a lot of I.in this note, like I feel, I want, I try , should I let. Nothing about really what he wants only what you want. In a relationship it's about the two of ya, not just your needs. Your young so you want things to work out perfectly, but unfortunate that's not how real life work. He's old enough to make his own decisions, and if going into the military is what he feels is best for him then that is what he should do. Not everyone who joins goes to war, it depends on what branch he goes into and what trade he takes up. Just like you should follow your dreams. If you two are meant to be together you should both be able to reach your dreams and still make it work. If it doesn't move on like I said you are young and the person you are in love with now, might not be the same person you would have fell in love with five or even six years from now. But like I said, you two are young and need to start getting your career started.
7 :
Two schools of thought here. Just because the government repealed the law doesn't mean it is going to be all popcorn and candied apples for gays that come out while serving. Look at all the blacks that struggled forever trying to get ANY kind of recognition, even though they bled red for the U.S. The other one is this. Your boyfriend is his own person and needs to make his own decisions based on his personal mores and values. The fact of the matter is that you can't "let" or "make" anyone do something they do or don't want to do. The only person you hold any sway over is you and the actions you take. If you don't want him to join, you get to speak your peace, but the final decision is his to make. Turn it around though. If the same instance was happening to you, would he support you and back you and be there for you when the whole thing is done and over with? If the answer is no then you might be in the wrong relationship. Good luck with whatever you say and whatever he does.
8 :
Obviously, you have made commitments to each other however he has as much right as you do to pursue his career choices. Being a couple at any age is difficult when career choices conflict with previously made plans. You both need to communicate honestly about your feelings. It does sound like you are thinking more of yourself than him by the statements you have made of "I" and not "we"; something that could mean you need to discuss this more so that you both understand each other and yourselves. Relationships take communication, understanding and work. Do not take a "let's watch and see"attitude because you might not like what you SEE. Good Luck.
9 :
Personally, I would try to convince my boyfriend not to join. I just wouldn't be able deal being away from him! But then again, I would feel like I was being selfish :( (but I would still try convince him not to go!) It seems like you've got alot going for you though, with becoming a RN and all, so I guess you'll have something to keep you going when he's gone. I guess you two will just have to sit down and have a talk about where your relationship is at, and how it would be if he joined and if he didn't join. Analyse your options :)
10 :
I understand your worries, but it isn't a matter of what you are willing to let him do. Holding him back from what he wants to do may hurt your relationship in the long run if he starts harboring resentment, wondering what life would be like if he hadn't let you convince him not to join. You two should have a heartfelt discussion about this, weighing the pros and cons, and whatever decision you guys make, try to make the most of it.
