Corridors. Think, do I know you? Do you know me?
Empty homes and broken families. Let us all gather and pretend everything is alright.
If you were kidnapped, would I save you? Or would I encourage them? Join them?
I once had a dream, it involved peering outside, hoping the people wouldn't notice I was inside. I was scared.
But I was there only because I was going to betray you.
So tell me, knowing this, would you trust me?

A Life Without Dreams
In more than one occasion have I the experience when one asks me what are my plans for the future. What are my dreams. What do I plan to do. In response, I would most commonly say, "I have absolutely no idea".
It may or may not be a commonly known fact that I indeed have no dreams. I ask myself the same question sometimes and a conclusion seems far from my grasp.
In the simplest sense, I want a simple life. Get a job, work, retire. Not much of a retirement plan but I have not really thought about what job I would want either. In contrast, I also want many things in life. A powerful computer, a nice house, good food, etc.
The thing about not having a goal in life is like throwing darts onto a board then drawing a target around it. Without a goal, there is no clear direction where you would want to go or what plan you should make to shorten your journey there.
Having a goal is like the finishing line of a race. Without it, you do not know when to stop, nor would you have the motivation to run in the first place.
Have a dream in life and go at it with full force.
