Sometimes I think our desires get so suppressed... we live in such a capitalist culture that we're told what we want all the time. Do we really know what we want? Can we ask for what we want? Desire is actually a healthy thing...

What's on your "want list?" From the most trivial to the biggest things... what is it that you want?

I want a lomi massage.
I want to be a midwife.
I want a beautiful wedding ring.
I want to swim with dolphins.
I want to go to Paris.
I want laser eye surgery.
I want a dollhouse.
I want an herb garden for the house.
I want to take a gourmet cooking class.
I want a VW bug with daisy wheels.
I want to celebrate the solstices.
I want to see The Lion King “Live”
I want to visit the Holocaust Museum.
I want to be a photographer.
I want to visit Amish country.
I want to go to New Orleans.
I want a tattoo.
I want red mittens and a red hat and a black velvet coat.
I want to learn to play volleyball.
I want to learn to ice skate.
I want to see David Blain “perform” live.
I want to be a bestselling author.
I want to passionately kiss another woman.
I want to learn to play piano.
I want to have sex somewhere "dangerous."
I want to take Ecstasy.
 
I try not to think of the things I want cuz I can't have them, but I suppose it can't hurt, just this once.

I want to lose fifty pounds.
I want better hair.
I want to get some time away from the kids on a regular basis.
I want to not have to worry about money.
I want to learn Italian.
I want to learn to knit.
I want to be able to make money with my writing.
I want to know what I want to be when I grow up.
I want to take a self-defense class.
I want to have a lover that stimulates me intellectually, physically, and emotionally.
I want to be able to let go of my issues with my family and live guilt-free.
I want a laptop.
I want to live near my friends or have friends near where I live.
I want to be a good mom.

Some of these are easy to achieve, some are not.

But the last one - That could be fatal. Just one could be the last thing you ever do. The risk is too great. Please take this one off your list.

I don't know that I would really do it... but I want to.
Wanting isn't always doing. It's like having a desire for something you know isn't good for you... someone else's husband, for example. You wouldn't DO it... but the desire is there... that kind of thing.
 
I want a BMW 845ci in black
I want a pair of ray ban way farers again
I want a way out
I want a 10 inch tablet pc
I want to make a Batman like utility belt out of old altoids tins
I want a nice digital camera
I want to go to Moscow, and Barcelona and Cannes
I want to build an airplane I designed
I want to be freinds with a celebrity
I want a Gibson Les Paul
I want to see Zumanity in Vegas
I want an Armani suit in charcoal grey
I want a wild torrid affair that lasts only for a week
I want a long deep hot kiss from a beautiful stranger
I want to know for certain Atlantis was real
I want to spend a day cuddled in bed
I want to see one co-worker naked.
I want a pair of 501 button fly jeans once I lose 6 more inches

Waiting on a mama with PROM to get some ctx so we can head up to the birth center. She ruptured around 3 am and has been doing not much since then. Our new voluntary regs say active labor by 18 hours post ROM or consult. With consult comes almost certain transfer of care. Tonight I'm supposed to be the snack mom for my daughter's Brownie troop, get stuff ready for another daughter's big day at school, take my son to the library and go on a date. I will instead either be at the BC or at the hospital.

If you become a midwife, you automatically eliminate about half of the other things on your "I want" list. Travelling, experimenting with drugs, etc are all almost impossible to manage with our schedule and our income. You know what they say, "Careful what you wish for..."

That's why I'm only a doula... and I'm waiting on the whole midwife thing :)

Get out of my head! :D
 
I want fame for some grand achievement in philosophy or psychology--application of behavioral analysis and a marriage of reason.
I want wealth--I want to have enough money to be frivilous, to buy the things I like and invest in ways that are closed to me right now.
I want power--over other people, occupationally or academically doesn't really matter. I want to be able to control the mood and behavior of others and many.
I want a thousand people to cry at my funeral and say "he was an important man".
 
Mercedes Benz

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?
My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.
Worked hard all my lifetime, no help from my friends,
So Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?
Dialing For Dollars is trying to find me.
I wait for delivery each day until three,
So oh Lord, won’t you buy me a color TV ?

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?
I’m counting on you, Lord, please don’t let me down.
Prove that you love me and buy the next round,
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a night on the town ?

Everybody!
Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz ?

Ah. The Shadow question. "What do you want?"

Mine are simple. I want a place of my own to live, someplace small and cosy.

I want a woman in my life. One who cares for me, not my accomplishments or my wealth.

I want to make a living, however small, as a writer.

I want a car. I've been carless since mine blew up on me a couple of months ago. I want a red convertible, Mustang or even a Sunfire would be fun.

to build a house of my own design. Blueprints are in hand.
to play pirate on a real sailing vessel.

to own horses again.
to expose my children to a diversity of things from around the world, and use it as a tool to teach them that we're all just people. Period.

to gain that five pounds - where i want it to be.
my children to be safe, healthy, and happy.

Sometimes, it's hard to focus on this sort of thing, but let's see...

I want...
...........time and money enough to not worry so often about the present
...........more self-control to make the most of the time I have for writing
...........to visit more major metropolitan areas around the world
...........to really take the time and try to make a living off my degree
...........some of the really cool items for my Neopets collections
...........a sense of comraderie and friendship with people I know offline
...........the chance to make more online friends offline ones as well
...........to finish off some of my comic and gaming cards collections
...........a day without feeling like I'm spinning my wheels
...........not to have the urge to break something or someone when angry

Mmm, it's a start, I suppose. *g*
 
I sat her for a half hour thinking about what I could possibly want and I came up with nothing...it's not like I have a lot...it's just that I have everything I need...

Mines simple.....

I want ten more years and the health to enjoy it....
 
I want to have Her here with me.
I want the pillows and sheets to carry our scent.
I want to be wrapped with Her in a cloak of desire.
I want to touch her cheek, the soft caress that shows her how gentle I can be.
I want to hear the sigh that escapes my lips as Her fingertips lightly touch mine.
I want to see in Her smile, the remembrance of the moments spent wickedly naked.
I want to feel the sting of Her teeth as my neck is bared to the full extent of our passion.
I want to see the way the bed and cushion slightly preserved the shape of Her body.
I want to feel Her lips on my neck or Her hand caressing slow circles on the small of my back.
I want to share with Her the most intimate of embraces as we discover how close two people can become.
I want to feel the touch of Her lips on mine and the softness of Her body pressed into the softness of my own.
I want to feel the pinch of Her fingertips as she deftly brings me the most pleasant pain, pushing the limits of my senses.
I want us to spend every night in each other's arms… have Her to myself, by my side, for as long as we need to be together.
I want Her to fill me to the point of satiation and yet creating a burning need so strong within me that I long to have Her beside me again as soon as She has left.

I don’t want to hide such a connection, to smother such a desire.
I don’t want to hide the blush on my cheeks as I become moist thinking of how She has taken me.
I don’t want to wait… to keep us a semi secret until our worlds have settled and we can share our love with those around us.

If only...

I want a way out


For some reason, this one made me smile. :rose:


I want ... hmm.... more good days than bad. Not saying my life ain't great, but if I'm to generalize on one thing, this would be it: I want a lifetime full of more good days than bad.

Let's see, what else...

I'd like to have sex with my lover in front of another couple who were also getting it on at the same time. Camping, anyone? :devil:

Oh, and I'd also like to wear a bikini. Wait, let's rephrase that: I'd like to feel like I had the body (and confidence) to wear a bikini.
