What are you most excited about for the future?

Children. I am most excited about the future to have children.

My answer to this question is extremely common. Many people would say this is what they are most excited for. I have always disliked the things that everybody loves. I thought for a long time that I would never have children because I hated myself so deeply, which is not something I would ever pass down.

I’m not sure if this is common knowledge, but DNA can change. I do not plan on having children for a long time, roughly 10 years, give or take a few. Despite this, I think of my unborn children every single day. I believe that their souls currently exist in the form of my two cats.

I do not want to have children until I have fully healed myself, which is a very long process. I want the DNA that I pass down to be healed. I want to love them so deeply and only show them kindness.

Humanity is getting better every day, with each generation. However, in my personal experience (working in customer service in Los Angeles) a lot of parents that I see around me today are still horrible towards their children.

I do have faith that this mainly applies to where I’m currently living. At the same time, I presume there is still a lot of healing that needs to be done, globally. I do wish every child could be raised in a pure in honest household. One where Santa isn’t real. One where parents aren’t lying to their kids about Dunkin’ Donuts being “out of marshmallows” before they even ask.
