Be Someone

I wish to be someone worth loving, worth respecting, someone who my parents could be proud of. I wish to wake up and take control of my life. To reconcile who I am today with who I want to be tomorrow. But today is not the first time I have realised this. It started as a call to action, a desire do something. This urge quickly simmered as before I failed time and time again till it is now reduced to but a desperate plea.

Now just wishing to become a better person is never going to be enough. But it is something which is a whole lot better than nothing. Now I know what it takes and am prepared to put in the work. This wish is a new seed that I have planted for the new year, it is something that will now require nourishment and nutrients. So my wish for the new year is to be able to take care of my wishes and to move forward on my journey of taking an active role in my life.
