What do you want most for your children?

(assuming that i ever have children, HAHA)

i want them to have the ability to love without reservation, and to be able to continue loving no matter how many times they get hurt

i want them to never, ever end up being jaded, and to always look at life with wonder and amazement

i want them to know that they are always loved, no matter what, and that i will always be there for them - no matter how much i nag at them. HAHAHA. and that they amount to something and they should never, ever feel the need to apologise for being themselves

i also want them to know that the people who put them down are probably secretly the most insecure asses they will ever meet - and to not be affected by the crap these people say

i want them to be curious - to be painfully curious. ask me anything, ask me awkward questions! i'll handle them - i'm going to be a doctor, nothing is going to be embarrassing. HAHAHA.

hmm - i am slightly divided on drama (whether to steer clear of it or to sod all and get stuck elbows deep in the shit life throws in your face and to be constantly amused at how everything that can go wrong does go wrong when it comes to you) - if these people are going to be my children and have inherited half of my genetic code i think they'd be more than likely to be embroiled in some major scandals sometime in their lives HAHA.

i want them to never judge, and to never, ever, ever stereotype people or have any prejudices

i want them to learn humility, and to please NEVER become empty vessels.

i also want them to be open to new ideas and other people's opinions

i want them to learn the power of silence, and listening. i want them to never shut up. i want them to be free to speak their mind (within reason, and after serious thought and without any vulgarities *lolol ahem*) and to not be cowed into silence by lesser minds.

hahahaha that's a pretty long list -_-

but if i had to sum it all in one sentence -

i'd want my children to strive to be the best person that they can be, despite me.
