My grandmother believes that there are women roaming this earth who want for nothing. Either they have it all, or they are content with what they have. I disagree. I think every woman wants for something; but I also think that women are prone to keep their desires secret. Even the most daring, independent, well-educated woman has learned to buck up, stay quiet, and carry on. So in an effort to break that mold - one of which I most certainly fit - I thought I would write down just a few of my "I wants."
I want to learn French
I want to travel to Peru
I want to learn to play guitar.
I want to look out my window and see something green.
I want to be asked to sing for my supper.
I want to raise a child.
I want to teach yoga.
I want to live in Paris.
I want to have faith.
I want to be headache free.
I want to write a novel.
I want to have an occasion to wear a veiled pill hat and stockings with seams up the back.
Yes, I most certainly have the "I wants."
Let's see what we can do about that.
