Typewriter Dreams...

February 21, 2010

Thought is wonderful, but adventure is more wonderful still... *


The premise
A typewriter was set up randomly across Madison with slips of paper and the following prompt:
What do you dream about?
Be honest and creative
Start with one of the following prompts
-I wish...
-I dream...
-I hope...
-I remember...
-I think...
-I want...
-I miss...
Be anonymous and do not delete

These submissions have been recorded in this blog (organized under different themes, you can find them in the labels on the section).

You will notice that some of the postings are a bit hard to read because they are misspelled; this is not meant to mock what people wrote, instead it is meant to show that we all make mistakes. The meaning is what's most important.

The goal
This is not just to see what people say, the idea is to get people to ask themselves the question: "What do I really want out of life?"

If we can get people to seriously ask this question and take action... imagine how happy they could be.

Thank you to everyone that participated! Look out in the future, once the typewriter gets fixed you might see it around again...
