What Do I Want From Life?


I want to feel good most days.
I want to travel frequently--visiting familiar places as well as places I’ve never seen before
I want to experience life--I want to see, smell, hear, taste, and touch the world around me
I want to spend time outdoors
I want to kayak and canoe
I want to be an artist--photography, collage, drawing, painting, digital collage
I want to make a difference in the world through education
I want to spend time with my husband and kids
I want to spend time with my friends
I want to be mindful and meditative
I want to feel confident and secure in myself
I want to lose the weight
I want to sit outside in the evenings, swinging and sipping on ice water
I want to float in the pool and look up at the sky
I want to explore the world
I want to walk in the woods
I want to touch ancient buildings
I want to pet soft animals
I want to see animals in the wild
I want to grow fresh herbs, fruits and veggies
I want to show my grandchildren how incredible and full of possibility life can be
I want to soak in the hot tub after a long day
I want to read great works of literature
I want to enjoy my time with me
I want to have a best friend that I can call and talk to
I want to be a musician
I want to be able to play the drums and sing at the same time
I want to be able to hike, climb, jog, and run
I want to be able to walk without fear
I want to help others
I want to feel like I can make a difference
I want to be cherished
I want to be appreciated
I want freedom
