I want happiness… I want to see the faces of the ones I love and feel a reflection of joy… I want to feel energetic… I want to walk without notice of my limbs… I want sunshine… sunshine with dabbles of shade to cool my soul… I want smiles from strangers… smiles that are infectious to others around… I want love… the love that feels like yesterday… a yesterday of discovery… I want warmth… the warmth of a child in my arms that nears slumber… I want laughter… a laughter that pulls from my spirit… I want peace… a peace that has no plan… a peace that exists on its own merit… I want conversation… a conversation in the dim light of companionship… I want attention… the attention that is undeserved… I want friendship… friendship that is earned through years of trust and honesty… I want charity… to give without credit for the deed… I want dancing… the dance of youth and the dance of lovers… I want calm… the calm of the sunset… I want satisfaction… the satisfaction from within… I want treasures… the treasures of a prized shell on a quiet beach… I want surprises… the surprises that stop the rhythmic pulse of my heart and renews the spirit of my mind…
