I Want to Build ...
7/9/2005 1:08:44 PM
First, the land ...
There are some things in life that we cannot have by purchasing a $200,000 home in the suburbs. I want to make something beautiful for myself and my family, but I feel so limited by the expectations of others. I want 50 acres and a large thick wall surrounding our space, attractively set along the borders of our private place for home and family, where we can run and play and the kids can safely ride a four wheeler or a horse if they wish. I want to have a lovely, tall gate with an automatic opener, flanked by majestic oaks that span the length of our long, shaded drive, to a large house built with hobbies and guests and parties in mind. I want to build upon my desires, not be confined to a small lot in the city. We must buy land. Or else, I think I will never be happy or hope to accomplish my dreams.
Other than writing, my interests have been:
Classical Violin
Pretty dresses in longer lengths
Sharing life experiences with family and friends (although some family have not stayed friends to me)
Fine Arts and fine foods
Hobbies such as sewing and gardening
Feeding the birds and letting them be free
Learning about the truths of life
