Wants and needs

Listening to: 'Mardy Bum' by Arctic Monkeys [Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not]

I want to...
  • Finish my PhD soon
  • Get a job that I love
  • Inspire young adults in my profession to use their skills responsibly
  • Fall in love
  • Commit myself to a man whom I connect with physically, emotionally and intellectually (not necessarily in that order)
  • Bring life into this world
  • Nurture a child and watch them transform into a responsible, independent adult
  • Do what I can to make sure that the future generation is armed with the knowledge they need to tackle the problems we leave unsolved
  • Grow old gracefully
  • Die with the satisfaction that I have made the most of my life
I need to...
  • Be content, even if I don't achieve any of the above
...and for the first time, I think I will be :-).
