Right now? Being honest and true to myself. Discovering who I am and becoming the person I want to be. I'm 21 now, and have started grappling with finding an identity. I think I'm making good progress in that regard.
But my lifelong goals? I live to see communism take hold in my country, no matter how long it takes. My friends are all moving away because they can't afford to keep living here under capitalism. I will destroy capitalism, make this country prosper and bring my friends home.
I've been learning that no matter what, I'm gonna have to do this the long way. So I'll try to live my life and learn how to be a person. I want to be a person who exists, not the perfect person who could never exist. And that means living and loving and failing and getting hurt and getting back up again. So that's what I'll do.
There are millions of different lives I would like to lead. I've only got one chance. I should make it worth it.
