It helps to sort what Melissa describes as fantasies from goals. I think the someday / maybes are at that moment in your life the things that are the "would be nice to" but not necessarily the things that grab hold of your soul refusing to let go. However, some of those somedays may be first steps, the quiet acknowledgment that the yearning is there until it rises into a roar that says today is the day.

I have been away for too long, for sure – but I’m back on my game now. I’ll return to posting at my own site soon too. Much time was spent thinking, and it was good.

Passing the torch is not limited only to those with children, either. Everyone’s ideas can live on, and they will, if you want them to.

I think working with such a list could do two things: prevent the death of certain dreams and b) when going regularly through that list making one think about one's dreams. To give an example: I am playing with the idea of writing e-books, but it is not a concrete project today. So I put it in Someday/Maybe. <abbr><em>Ulla Hennig´s last blog post..<a href="http://ullahennig.wordpress.com/2009/05/08/holocaust-memorial-berlin/" rel="nofollow">Holocaust Memorial, Berlin</a></abbr></em> Karen,
