i hope i achieve the life i've always dreamed of. i'm tired of merely surviving. i want to live. to wake up without constantly worrying about what's next, to experience joy without feeling guilty, to travel, to rest, to provide for the people i love, and to finally breathe knowing that i made it. may the universe be kind to me. may all the years i've spent trying, waiting, and holding on lead me somewhere beautiful. i hope one day i'll look back at this version of myself and quietly say, "we made it." until then, i'll keep going, even on the days it feels impossible. because i still believe there's a life out there that's meant for me. i hope i get to live it.
