    I want to be really successful. I want to go to medical school, do what I love for a living and not get judged by my patients and/or colleagues.
    I want to be morally perfect and helpful, living by the Scout Law, Motto, and Promise which I have sworn to keep.
    I want to be a good Christian and, accepted by my church and by God while being accepting and respectful to people with different faiths (or lack thereof).
    I want to make my parents proud, and overthrow all the deflating things people have spoken against me.
    I want to travel and see the world.
    I want to be my true self without fear.

    Good question. I honestly have no idea. All the things that I thought were important to me - a career, money, art, looking good - no longer are. To be honest, I couldn't give a stuff about them any more. I've gone from being an A grade student with a long list of qualifications to someone who would rather decorate homes or fix cars for a living. All my priorities have changed. I don't care about being successful since the 'success' I was aiming towards was never my idea of successful anyway. It was what I thought I SHOULD succeed in. I don't care about material things. As long as I'm comfortable that's all that matters and I couldn't care less about art. It has gone from being something I thought was so important to me and my life to something I view with disdain. It seems so self indulgent, so pointless from where I am looking at it now. Weird how things change. I know I don't want a family (my kids would be so fucked up any way :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:). I don't think I'll ever buy a house or any kind of property. I don't like to get comfy anywhere, it's too risky. The only thing I am really aiming for in life is my transition and becoming who I was meant to be. Anything else is a bonus.

    I want to be the change I wish to see in the world. I want to be optimistic and positive about everything. I want to accept people for who they are and not get mad when I disapprove of their lives. I want to inspire others to see the universe through my eyes. I want to spread good ideas and play my part in helping to fix many of the worlds problems. I want to be confident in my own identity and I want to show people that being different should be valued.

    I want to be someone who makes a difference in the world. I want to be someone who is remembered fondly for being a good person to friends and family.

    I want to be the best person I can be and gender and sexuality have no bearing on how good of a person you are and what you do to better the world... unless it's to fight for those who aren't cis hetero.

    The woman I need to be, no more, no less. If I need to be her.

    I want to live in Canada with the man I love. I want to smile and laugh and bring joy and happiness to the world. I want to make a difference. I want to travel and experience cultures from around the world. I want to go to college but I don't want the student loans. I want to learn, but not for a grade. I want to live my life to the fullest, and enjoy every minute of it. I want the world to see me as a boy, even if I'm cross dressing and I want to transition. I don't want to be afraid of transitioning, and sometimes I don't want to transition at all, I just want to be seen as a boy. I want to swim, and I want to be a psychological profiler for the FBI but I also want to work for the Trevor project and have a YouTube channel. I want to change peoples lives for the better. I want to look at my future with a sense of optimism, and I don't want to be afraid of what it holds. I want to stop fighting with my parents, and I want to see my boyfriend smile more often, and I want to be happy. That's all I want; happiness.

    I can't really say who I want to BE because it's going to fluctuate. But I can say I want to be the man I know I am, be kind hearted, and not so afraid to face the world. As for my life, I am going out to be a hairdresser. I would like a nice apartment. Also I'd like someone to share my love of video games with. ^w^

    I just want to be the kind of person who others treat like a person instead of anything else because people treating me like I am worthless and avoiding me like there is something wrong with me is getting very old and is stressing me out so bad I am starting to think that my life will be very short .

    I want to become a computer programmer and live in a city. And I'd like to be a good person. Just generally being happy would be good enough though.

    I want to be a man who is happy with his life and know what I want, whether it be in my personal or professional life.

    I want to be someone who spreads universal understanding, I know a lot of people have come before me, but there is still work to be done on this.
    We aren't a group to be feared, or ostracized. I want to spread the knowledge in a peaceful way.
    That's who I want to be

    I want to be the happy and optimistic but still rather shy girl.
    I want to have interests which I'm passionate about.
    I want to have a job, in which I can make enough to live comfortably.

    But mostly, just happy! Not sad or depressed, not apathetic but can have a good time, but HAPPY!

    I want to do something good for the world. I want a job that will let me make a difference, even if it's a tiny difference or just a difference for one person.
    I want to learn, and I want to keep wanting to learn.
    I want to be able to take risks so I can experience things I wouldn't have otherwise.
    And, of course, I want to be happy.

    ---------- Post added 27th May 2014 at 11:35 PM ----------

    That is an excellent thing to aspire to :slight_smile:
