hope for the future...

day 5 ~ question #5:

something you hope to do someday?

had this question been asked to me five years ago my answer would be so completely different than it will be now ~ but i am sure that five years before that it would have been so completely different from what it was five years ago.

something i hope to do someday... here goes:

• i hope to have answers to questions that haunt me on a daily basis ~ or if not answers, i hope to get to the point where these questions don't bother me anymore

• i hope to have contentment ~ to be happy where i am, with what i have been given, and not feel that subtle urge to wonder if there can be more

• i hope to have courage to make changes in my life that i am afraid to make but know that i should

• i hope to have fulfillment from a relationship ~ a career ~ my children's lives

• i hope to walk down the beach, at sunset, with the man who i know i could not live without

• i hope to find my passion for life

• i hope to see my children happy ~ strong ~ compassionate ~ loving ~giving ~ loving life

• i hope to have peace and calm inside of myself when things in the world around me are in a constant state of chaos

• i hope to listen and hear what is being said without questioning

• i hope to no longer regret, but to come to acceptance of things that i can not change and of things that i have no control over

• i hope to tell all my friends how much i have loved them in my life

• i hope that i do not wait until my parents are dying to let them know how thankful i am for all the things that they have given me or taught me in life ~ and for doing the best they could when they knew our world was falling apart

• i hope to become someone i like again

• i hope that i am forgiven by those i have hurt, both knowingly and unknowingly ~ and i hope that i can forgive those who have hurt me

i hope to find God again ~ i hope to trust God again.....
