Where I will be in 10 Years

I haven’t actually taken the time to seriously think about what my life will be like in the future. Sure, I have thought about when I might like to retire, or what other countries and places I might like to visit, but to actually narrow it down and give some thought to what I might be doing in 10 years….I haven’t done that until right now.

If I put some real thought into it, I am guessing that I will still be living in my current house because I love it so much, and love my neighborhood. I’m guessing that neither of my parents will be alive anymore, and most of the older generation of family will be gone. I’m hoping my husband will still be alive. My son will have moved out of the house and probably be married, so maybe I will be a grandmother in 10 years. But where does all of this leave me? I think that I will still have a horse and ride, my current dog should still be alive so I imagine I will still be walking her every morning…….and I plan on retiring early, so I probably will be retired. I possibly will have developed a new venture in the next few years that will have grown in 10 years, so it will keep me busy. I would really like to be at a place in my life where I don’t have to work so hard and I will have more time to enjoy life. However, I really can’t think about these things because it’s hard to say what the world will be like in 10 years because of the way that things seem to be headed. Not to be bleak, but I don’t have a lot of hope for the future, so all I can really do is take it year by year, and that is why I really haven’t given the future much thought until now.
