THIS POST MIGHT OFFEND PEOPLE, SO IF YOU CAN&#8217;T HANDLE IT STOP READING NOW&#8230;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>We all have dreams and goals in our life, but only 8% of people actually go after their dreams and achieve them. I have been judged so many times along my journey, by family, friends and boyfriends. However I always knew that I&#8217;m special&#8230; I&#8217;m different in so many ways and I want to achieve so much in life. I want to make an impact.<\/p>\n<p>However there is always something holding me back. Yesterday I was thinking about life and if I died tomorrow, how many people would really care??? (Don&#8217;t worry I&#8217;m not thinking about leaving this planet yet). The only reason that I though about that is because since I left Sweden 7 years ago only <strong>ONCE<\/strong> have someone came to visit me here in Australia&#8230; Is that how much I mean to people? It really put it all into perspective&#8230; Yes it&#8217;s expensive to travel to Australia, but seriously&#8230; <strong>1 visit in 7 years<\/strong>&#8230;. that is very pathetic. It has always been expected that I should be the one to come home and visit.<\/p>\n<p>And I have&#8230;.during my 7 years away I have been back 5 times. Yes I was the one leaving Sweden, so can I really expect someone to come and visit me then??? My answer is <strong>YES.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I suppose that I just have to live with this feeling and forgive and move on&#8230; but sometimes it&#8217;s hard. For the first time in so long I have actually found friends that is like family to me and now I have to leave. I&#8217;m just scared that I will forever have this empty lonely feeling inside. I feel like I have lost touch with Sweden and everything that used to be home is no longer home. Malta will be amazing (Yes I&#8217;m moving to Malta in the end of November).<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>It also feels like just because I&#8217;m moving to a place that is closer to Sweden everyone is starting to plan on visiting me (J this does not include you, because I really wan&#8217;t to see you soon). I can tell you all that I will still keep my walls up and just because I move closer doesn&#8217;t mean I want you around more. I&#8217;m sorry but I will keep my distance because I need it, I know this might hurt and make people angry, sad or upset&#8230; and it&#8217;s not my intentions&#8230;I&#8217;m just being real to myself.<\/p>\n<p>I love my family and my friends, but I would lie if I didn&#8217;t admit that I&#8217;m disappointed&#8230; Maybe this is what it&#8217;s all about. The reason I&#8217;m here on earth is to inspire women all around the world to be strong and know that they are able to live a life on their own. You will always need friends, but you can make friends anywhere in the world. What happens after you&#8217;re gone doesn&#8217;t matter&#8230; live life here and now and don&#8217;t regret anything.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2078 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-scaled-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-203x270.jpg 203w, https:\/\/dreamsbylinda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/IMG_5595-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>I love the word\u00a0<strong><em>Onlyness<\/em>:<\/strong> Make Your Wild Ideas Mighty Enough to Dent the World, this is what I&#8217;m doing and this is my dream.
