Wants

I want to feel lean and fast and free from worry.

I want an empty "to be filed" box. I don't want it to overflow again.

I want to sleep through the night because I've spent my day tiring myself out doing things I love to do.

I want to read things that challenge/effect/move me. Which excludes most websites.

I want to be clear. And loud.

I want to enjoy the full experience of being me instead of waiting in the wings for my cue to take the stage.

I want to smile at the thought that someone might find this list obnoxious or trite. It's none of my business what you think of me, anyway.
