What I really want is not money or success or to change the world. Deep inside, I want to make a difference…but I don’t need to move mountains. Just to know one person has lived or breathed easier because of my actions. I don’t want to be wealthy and I don’t need to even be financially secure. I need to be happy. I need to be with someone who loves me like I love them. Someone who gets me. I want to have a family someday. I want to do something I am passionate about, not just something I could live with doing for the rest of my life. I don’t want to just exist, I want to actively live and to seize every opportunity and let every moment be the best it can be. Life is short and it escapes us all too fast. I don’t want it to pass me by for the idle possessions of the world. I don’t crave a nice new car — I would rather legs that worked so I could walk. I don’t crave money because it can never buy me what really matters. I crave passion, I crave connection. I crave that feeling you get when something truly makes you feel alive.
