Who do I want to be, even though Gini loves me the way I am...
Well, truthfully I've given this a lot of thought. Not just now, but over the past months, years, etc. I've come to the conclusion that I want to be whomever I can be, to the fullest. Whether that makes me an artist, a baker, a teacher- whatever.
But deep down inside I know that's not the whole truth.
I want to, as of now, get a degree in college (sure) but become a hippie and live in a small but comfortable house with a cute kitchen and a beautiful garden. I want to create art and give it to people to brighten their souls and I want to bake and sell my goodies.
I realize, though, that I can't enlighten anyone until I learn to love myself even more. I haven't lost myself, I think I'm just changing. But, anyway, back to my answer:
I want to be the weird but cool mom with tattoos and strange hair. I want to live in Canada, or Amsterdam or somewhere that I can be myself without being reprimanded. I don't want to live in America. I want to be all that I can be, without joining the army. I want to have been a volunteer for Peace Corps. I want to have saved baby gorillas from poachers.
I want to be a lover and a mother. I want to be a teacher and a learner.
Anything can happen, though. I don't have dreams of becoming a rock star or a doctor. I may be simple but in my heart it seems big. It's what I'd love to do,
I just have to find it first.
