hope so selfishly

I hope I will make my parents proud one day
I hope I will find love that will not prove to be impossible
I hope I will live to see the day when there is equality for all
I hope I will find a job once out of PhD hell
I hope I will have children some day
I hope I will live in a warmer place than here, even if it is just for a year
I hope I will let go of the past and look to the future
I hope I will finish my 'beast' on time, and before I go crazy
I hope I will learn to forgive and let go
I hope I will never put on too much weight
I hope I will be able to contribute to society in whatever way I can
I hope I will not feel this heartache for much longer
I hope I will live with my mistakes and learn from them
I hope I will keep in touch with all of my good friends throughout my life
I hope I will not keep on being stubborn as a mule
I hope I will not be ignorant to other's feelings or needs
I hope I will be a good and loyal friend to the people whom call me friend
I hope I will be able to trust and be trusted
I hope I will still see the good in other people when I get older
I hope I will not become cynical with age
I hope I will be able to laugh as much as I do now when I am 60
I hope I will love again like I have loved before
I hope I will learn to accept myself as I am
I hope I will learn to love myself
I hope I will have my parents around when my children are born
I hope I will see my sister truly happy
I hope I will give as much as I receive
I hope I will be able to live without you
