sifting and changing

I was just sifting through some old emails I keep in a folder called "sweet" when I found this little bit I wrote to someone a very long time ago... I vaguely remember writing it, but I love that I did and thought I would share it... I hope it begets inspiration

so what are my dreams? what do i long for?

these two questions remain intertwined in my head as two sides of the same coin... i long to effect a positive change on people's lives... i dream of changing the world... i long to help those who don't have the capacity to help themselves to the level of their desires... i long to share my words with the world... i want to see people happy and i want to be one of the people to help them feel that happiness, that calm, that serenity... i want to be peaceful myself... i dream of publishing and selling my books, and i long to make a difference... though i get discouraged about the effect that one person can have on the world, it is shortlived, because when i do something special for someone special and i see that glimmer in their eyes for that brief moment, i know i can change the world, because i can change one person's world, and thats the world to me... i want people to know how important they are, and i want people to discard any negativity and complexity that surrounds them... a lot of my dreams and longings are perhaps wrongly rooted in other people's happiness, but they are also rooted in mine... publishing my words and changing the world will make me happy... the effects of those will make others happy... hence the happiness of my world and the happiness of the world are entwined in a sort of codependent and loving way... i dream of learning, and by learning, changing... both my life and the life of those around me... i love peeling away the layers of complexity and simplifying life to this: just be happy... your questions are hard to answer, the answers finding roots in other questions... but i dream of joy and i dream of serenity... and i long for these words to inspire dreams of their own...

thats not all, but its certainly the beginning...
