If you had to narrow your ideal end place in life to a single theme / image / idea, what would it be?

Basically I just want to be able to live in a cozy place in the woods where I am financially stable and can look back at my life knowing that I had fun and some good times, that I was true to myself and always did my own thing, and that I lead a life where I made the decisions I thought were right. But honestly, at this point, no matter where I end up my ideal place in life is I guess stability and serenity.
I don't have to be happy all the time but I'd like more happy or neutral days than bad ones.
I'm also very fond of the idea that I made a difference, even if it's just for one person.

To reach that goal I actually took a break, by this I mean that (during my depressive episode) I rage quit my shitty retail job. I feel like my parents and some others are being kind of judgmental. But having this time to myself has been really telling. I discovered new interests and hobbies and it helped me clear my depression once and for all. I ended up getting my degree and I'm gonna get back into job searching soon. But I think that the off time really helped me a lot. I got to do more writing and drawing and (as mentioned) discovered new interests. I also applied for a passport which is really exciting because I've been wanting to visit new countries for a long time.

Long story short, I guess my ideal place is knowing that I did my best and that I did what I wanted to do in life. That I took opportunities and sought out new and fun adventures. And that I helped someone out.

I'd second Zanhar's answer about Stability and Serenity at this point regardless of where I found myself. Various Images have come to mind when it comes to a concentrated ending point. What applies to each of them is leading an autonomous and satisfying life with those close to me being able to get my support just fine. To mention a common one, that is chilling on a Tropical Island of sorts. You know, laying down in a bench as I admire the spreadness of the Sea in front of me as I also watch the Sun rise or set and enjoying the light breeze. Having people bring me coconuts to drink from, etc. The kind of Vacation I have in mind. Being comfortable, enjoying the greatest things life has to offer you and looking back at my life knowing that I have succeded and my loved ones are in good condition. I'll be having no regrets.

When it comes to reaching that Goal, I do what I can. Have finished with School and now I'm attending University in order to follow my desire of being an Archaeologist, living the kind of experiences it offers (Travelling being a major one) to the outmost as well as hold my ground financially with a Profession. Other Activities that involve interests of mine such as Martial Arts and Music come to the mix too which contribute a lot to both Body and Spirit. There is improvement both Physically as well as Mentally and that helps with the main objective just as much. For now, I do what I can and will see where that will take me.

Yeah though, that's the basic gist of things XD !!!!

Comparing with life only 7 years ago I am satisfied of my life because I overcome my fears of being a failure and unuseful to myself Not only I have a good job but with my new business that I told you about before I am now living in my own home and left behind 'renting issusse' and have guaranteed my sisters future too. I do have more plans in further future xD one of them is pets shelter :)
