Want...




The challenge today concerned what it is that you want.  This is a hard thing for me these days.  It always comes up around my birthday & the holidays.  I get asked what I want & the honest answer is not much.  At least not much that any one can give me.

When I was a kid, before Christmas my Grandmother would set me down with a catalog & tell me to go through it & write down everything I wanted.  This became my Christmas List.  It always had enough stuff on it, she was sure to keep me guessing.  As I've gotten older, there just isn't this need to acquire things like there used to be.

I don't need much, I'd just like the things I have to stay in good repair or have the means to replace them.  I don't need the best car, but I'd like one that runs dependably.  I don't need a ton of $, but I'd like enough to be secure.  I'd like for the people around me to be in a good place in their lives.  I wish the people in my area would take better care of their animals.  I have enough strays as it is.  

I'm tired of politicians & misinformed people judging people on disability.  I think ACTA, SOPA & PIPA should be shoved up the people who originated them's backsides then set on fire.  I wish the political folks would focus on real problems & not knee-jerk smoke screen issues.   I guess what I want most of all is just to feel secure, that's something probably every child of an alcoholic wants.  

There are some of my wants, what are your?
