Ok, ladies and gents. No intro needed. Just another day in the life of me. 🙂
I want to be completely nice. I want to be completely unselfish. I want to be completely friends with everyone.
I want to be compassionate, and I want to do it wholeheartedly. I want to love, and I want to do it full-heartedly.
I want to be empathetic. I want to feel your happiness, and cry tears of joy. I want to feel your sadness, and weep tears of pain.
I want to be your advocate. I want to understand your false sense of courage. I want to rid you of your bravado.
I want to be your supporter. I want to instill in you courage in the midst of fear. I want you to understand conviction.
I want to be a painter, painting the skies any arbitrary color of my desire reflecting my mood state.
I want to be a sculpture, perverting the shape of the continents by deforming the face of the earth.
I want to be a penguin, flying through the endless skies wishing I could swim.
I want to be a bald eagle, dashing through the waters of Antartica with my loving friend the seal not too far behind.
I want to be a designer. I want to travel to Paris’ and let my creativity bleed into the fashion industry.
I want to be a Nigerian President. I want to fix the rights of the past and do the country wrong for a change.
I want to be free. I want to walk the streets of Tokyo singing “Baibaba Bimba” over and over again without a care in the world.
But I Was Told By The World We Live In, That All My Wants And Desires Are “Impossible.”
I searched for “impossible”, and found it crossed out with words above it: “Refer to ‘Hope'”.
“Hope: a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen. As long as you have Faith, there will always be Hope.”
Faith.
