all i really want

Sometimes I'm embarrassed how little it takes to make me happy. I think I'm supposed to want to change the world somehow, to discover or create something new, to have a big house and a perfect family.

But all it takes is the touch of skin on skin to make me want nothing at all.

  2. RaspberrySurprise - No, it's my greatest weakness. I'm smart enough to have much more impact on the world, but I'm almost entirely amotivational because I get too much pleasure from the little things. Why work hard, why go to school or get published or create anything, when everything I want is between my legs?

    John B - Funny, CC and I used to fantasize about running away in an RV. There was the question of money though.

  3. 'ell, most days I'm content to chat with the pups.

    Doesn't take much to make me happy... some days, yes I want to leave my foot print on the world. Other days, it doesn't matter, my happiness with everything wins. Like now... have a pup laying on my foot, looking at me like its the best spot in the world.

    Personal enjoyment wins every time.

    You were planning on keeping her in a box?
