What I Want

What I want is to not have my heart break a million times a day.

What I want is to not miss my ex so much still.

What I want is to have what every couple has--each other.

What I want is to have babies of my own.

What I want is to lose 20 pounds (as a starter).

What I want is to be in law school.

What I want is to have my friends be happy, in whatever makes them happy.

What I want is to learn how to play the drums.

What I want is to live on my own.

What I want is to have a job I love, one I do not mind getting up for in the morning.

What I want is to find peace and happiness within myself, for myself, with myself.

What I want.

Oh Jill. Sorry you are going through all this heartache. It totally sucks. But put it this way... at least you know what you want!

I don't know you, but i am sorry for your situation. I know how you are feeling; your hurt, and alone. Something deep inside you is screaming, and you feel like running...I forgot what my point was, but now might be a good idea to consider a career as an alcoholic :)

Also-i keep telling people- life is an endless cycle of bordom and frustration. When we have what we want we are bored and if we dont we are frustrated.

Join me on the dark side.

Eva-Thanks, and very true! I had an epiphany so I'm not going through all the heartache. I'm thinking of blogging about it soon. :)

N8t- Thanks, and thanks for joining my blog. And my career as an alcoholic began awhile ago. ;)

Knowing what you want is always the first step, the second step, is figuring out how to get it! I applaud you on taking the first step.

It's good to know what you want because then you won't be confused trying to decide what you want. However, it can still be confusing trying to figure out how to get what you want. It's hard and the worst part is wondering when you will get it. When you will be truly happy and satisfied. When you will be able to cross certain things off your "want" list.

Big N8t- About the endless cycle- that is the most profound thing I've heard in a long time. I hope you don't mind if I quote it anonymously.
