In This Article:

Everyone has dreams. People start dreaming from when they're young, and want to be firefighters or ballerinas or singers. And as they grow, their dreams grow with them and develop into something that reflects the. Dreams change into wanting a career, a family, true love, and happiness in life, and anything in between. They're unique to each person and to each personality, and a person's dreams and desires tells a lot about them and what kind of person they are, and its really interesting to compare these dreams with those of others around them. So I asked 10 people if they had any dreams and what they are.

1. ​"To have a successful future."

Maria Martinez, 18

2. "I want to be genuinely happy with myself and the people in my life."

Donya Moghaddari, 17

3. "I want a world that's near immortal, that won't fall apart until future generations are ready to support it fully."

Daniel Woods, 17

4. "I want to be content with a simple life."

Ariba Ahmed, 18

5. "The world to be a place like that of the mind of a more peaceful person."

Aniketh Narayanan, 18

6. "A better environment."

Sruti Chitluri, 18

7. "Be a famous choreographer."

Michelle Ifarinde, 17

8. "To make money"

Niha Reddy, 17

9. "To be a doctor."

Katarina Amelchenko, 18

10. "I want to be a point in my life where I am able to reflect and positively define my growth in all spheres of my life. I want to grow as a person, make more emotional connections with people, help people help themselves and love people uninhibitedly. I want to grow professionally as a young scholar, learn how to learn, learn how I specifically learn as an individual and pursue my academic interests."

Ifrah Waris, 21

Everyone shares similar wants and desires- happiness, success, money, fame- but seeing the unique dreams that each person has makes us understand how special each person is and how we all have things we want, and that's what makes us human. We can connect with others through the fact that we all have things special and dear to us that we want to achieve.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
