How far would you go to get what your heart desires?
I think I've already gotten my one of my heart's desires. What I have is a partner in life, who will stay by my side forever. They will help me, and I will help them, and I will feel the love and support I have never known. It doesn't mean my journey is over though. There are still many things I desire. Improving our life and our relationship together... I would go very far to achieve that. I would sacrifice it all. Money, food, etc. Except for my own life. Because how can I sacrifice my own life to have a happy life?
But then there is my other heart's desire. The desire to achieve my full potential. Very life-long, and very deeply ingrained within me. What would I do to get there? It's a much more difficult task, because it requires overcoming a massive fear. But I would go very far to achieve that, just short of sacrificing my partner, because I wouldn't do that. The two desires can co-exist peacefully anyway, because one improves the other. I can't quantify just how far I would go, but I can say that my entire life is dedicated to this as well, so there are countless hours I would put into it. I think I would, in a drastic situation, commit a very brave and trying act.
I have many things I want, and I doubt I'll ever run out. I'll always have something to aspire towards and that's what makes my life worth it in the end.
Do you give up easily?
Sometimes I do, particularly involving my second desire. It's so difficult to overcome anxiety like how I have. But that's in the smaller battles. In the overall grand scheme, I will never give up trying to pursue it. Because the day I give up is the day I die.
Would the difficulties along the way stop you from getting it?
No. As I said, I may lose the small battles, but I'll continue until it happens. And even after it happens, I'll continue onwards. Because you can never stop improving.
