I keep thinking about this question lately. It seems like everyone is doing all of these complicated things, working super long and stressful hours, trying to buy all of this stuff, trying to be all of these things that they aren't—for what?
I feel like the things that I really want are all pretty simple, but the problem is that society makes them so hard to find—at least in America.
I honestly would just like to live in a nice area (somewhere with nature and real architecture, not plaster suburbs) surrounded by nice people (people with values that aren't superficial and who enjoy connecting) and have a happy family (a wife that I love and some kids and pets) but somehow this still seems so hard to find. I didn't really come from a good family and I honestly wonder if this "dream" is even real for me.
Is anyone living this type of life (or has a similar dream) and if so, how did you get there? For me, I have this fear of getting a job in the city I'm in now because I am really unsatisfied with it. But at the same time, in order to move away, I need money.
Another really frightening thing about this dream is that it could basically become a nightmare if I chose the wrong place or person to buy a home in/with.
