Mr Caramel the Astronaut

If I tell Mr Caramel I want to be an Astronaut I expect him to say "YES, why the fuck not!" There are a million reasons why I can't actually be an Astronaut but I do not need him to point out each and every one. What I expect is for him to list every reason why I could would be a great one and what I need to do to get there. There are so many people that will tell you "You can't do this/it's not possible" but that means nothing when my cheerleader is shouting louder for me to succeed then anyone is booing for my downfall.

Your partner needs to be able to dream with you. The biggest part of opening up is not your legs, it's sharing your deepest hopes and dreams. The ones you don't want to tell anybody for fear they may laugh and ridicule you (I know you can relate to that). It's knowing you can come up with something ridiculous and your partner will not laugh but will do anything to help you get there.

Want to find out if you've got your very own cheerleader? Go and tell them you want to be an Astronaut (or your real dream!) and see what they say. Share your story below if you do this and with how they reacted.
