It's funny...that when you're a kid you have all these things you want to do. Mine were riding a horse, associating with wild animals, e.g. lions, wolves, etc. But then when you get older, you either have fulfilled these fantasies or have seen others experince dealing with wild animals. When I was a teenager I finally did get to ride horses---although with a saddle. I read an article of a family who rescued a wolf and he lived with them--and the husband had to learn about wolf behavior in order to keep the wolf from being aggressive. The husband had to be the alpha-male and the wolf accecpted that. People today walk among lions -- the ones who understand their behavior. A lady, I forgot her name at the moment, lived with and studied gorillas in Africa. Jayne Goodall studied chimpanzees for over 20 years. So that kind of took my fantasies away--although personally I would love to be with these animals.
In the meantime, I wanted to study things that boggle my mind now such as math, & physics. With a perfect mind, I'd ace those subjects. Also, studying genetics--I find that fascinating.
So then in my young adult years, especially after an elder's wife thought we would embark on space travel, that was my thing too. I love learning about space and just am amazed at the pictures the Hubble telescope has taken of nebulas, etc. So I guess now, in my older life, I still would love to travel in space.
I just hope that if there is to be a paradise earth, we won't become innocents that are food to more evil creatures (ala The Time Machine).
