- knowledge & awareness- of myself, of the human experience, and of the world, even when the truth hurts.
- control
- polyglotism.
- peace of mind
- a quick mind & sharp memory
- tact. (my stock is limited.)
- financial comfort/stability. i definitely wouldn't complain if i were filthy rich, but it isn't the most important thing to me. i just want to have enough to where i know money issues won't be holding me down.
- to be thorough in anything and everything i do ("whatever you are, be a good one.")
- to be balanced
- to travel extensively. i can't stand the thought of living in this world and not exploring it.
- to be fearless without being reckless - there is a fine line between taking worthwhile chances and just being stupid.
- to be with somebody who i appreciate, respect, and adore, and who returns the sentiment.
- to be with someone who is smart, imaginative, and ambitious.
- to learn how to not take things personally. (this is a hard one to tackle.)
- patience. in some areas of my life, it's infinite; in others, it doesn't exist and never has.
- to be in excellent physical condition: partially for vanity reasons (swimwear. jeans. tight things.), but more because i don't want health issues to stop me from enjoying my life. this is especially true of preventable things, so i refuse to smoke, i won't do drugs, i drink in moderation, i think about my cholesterol, and i try to exercise regularly. out of respect for myself - present & future.
