Speed, and thrill was the response from a few readers who envision a life racing cars. Though perhaps the most poignant of responses were those desiring to serve animals in need, seeing a world where no pet is left uncared for.

One reader said his dream is already a reality after he quit his regular job to join the fire service, describing it as the best decision of his life.

We also heard from aspiring social activists ready to step up for human rights, triathletes in the making, and creative minds hoping to craft unique jewelry. Family folks wished for endless travels with their loved ones.
