dream or fantasy?

they're synonymous, yes?
but we're all guilty of blurring the line that differentiates these 2 words..

It is like a reminder - what is the difference?

I've fantasies... *chuckle*
Lots!
Like I fantasize that I'll live in the arctic circle for the entire time the sun doesn't set..
Or... a round-the-world, unlimited time, F&E honeymoon..

Yes, those are FANTASIES.
to the point of ludicracy, sometimes.
Or, something that will excite me, awfully.. but I'm not sure if I really want, in my life.
I'd certainly hate not being able to sun myself in a bikini, rollerblading down a beach; or getting homesick.. on a never ending trip..

So, what are dreams?

2. an involuntary/ voluntary vision indulged in while awake; daydream; reverie.
3. an aspiration; goal; aim: A trip to Europe is his dream.

8. something of an unreal beauty, charm, or excellence. desirable.

Dreams are what makes me wanna live, and be happy...
Dreams are what I truely-wouueely want, deep down in my heart.

Its not a "summer house" in the arctic circle, neither is it straddling multiple men in ... well, wherever tickles your fancy. It's not being homesick, or stuffing myself with fishballs (they've been my fav food since I could eat'em), or buying clothes that I end up not wearing.....

No...

None of that at all...

My dream is..it is simple. :)
