I think I'm scared to do the Crazy Pineapple Dream on my own...

When I embarked upon the Crazy Pineapple Dream, over a year ago, I had a partner in it all. However, like many people with Crazy Pineapple Dreams, both of us didn't have the same dream, or commitment to the dream. I'm left figuring out how to do the dream on my own. I have tremendous support both on the island and here on the mainland, both offering assistance, advice and even housing. Yet, the dream WE had sometimes doesn't seem possible on my own, or at times even overwhelming. For instance, we had dreamed of purchasing jungle land and carving out our own space, creating as we had the time, money and energy. My hesitation isn't about the money, or time or even the energy, as I know I can swing this, it's about doing the dream by myself. I mean seriously, am I going to go to a jungle to live on my own?? Does it mean anything if I can't share the dream with others? I don't know... In the end, I know I will pursue the Crazy Pineapple Dream, yet, it might be seriously modified if I'm doing this on my own... All of that being said there are other possibilities that are being explored ... :-)   OK... weak, scary moment over with, on with the dream!! LOL!

  3. I know exactly what you mean. I'm a single guy and dreaming of moving to Hawaii to live a less materialistic, more rewarding life away from the rat race. But I don't exactly want to become a hermit in the jungle either! I like people!

    Maybe we need to find a hippie commune on the big island! :)
