To have a fully restored Vanagon camper, and drive around to different places.

And get my novels published. 8O

A main raison d'etre is to keep pondering for what purpose (if there is a purpose) we all exist in the first place.

On a somewhat related point, I think it is quite fascinating that hydrogen and helium are thought to be the only two original elements to exist at the beginning of time. Also it is hard to fathom how any animal, let alone humans, could have been formed out of the stuff of stars. (Perhaps the existence of electricity makes this easier to fathom?). Of course I do realise that the explanations of astronomy are only one body of thought's point of view out of many body of thought's points of view.
Also, I realise that it is likely impossible or near impossible to know for sure why we all exist. But I still think it is something useful to think about because it is a question above all others.

Other raison d'etre are to be the best that I can be (by knocking down real or perceived barriers myself or someone else has put up), to get up quickly when faced with setbacks, and to work on improving my social skills.

I am curious to know what sort of book you want to get published.

Number 1 and 2 have become reality. To add number 5 is to be a big time speaker to inspire and give others hope. Number 3 is looking likely within 5 years and number 4 might come true if my brother really does start his own gaming company (he's writing his business plan now). By the way, my business is Critters On Things and the website is www.crittersonthings.com I produce many items with my art on it.

To be a respected novelist.
To find lasting and deep love.
To feel secure and fearless at last.
To be in peace with myself.

I want to restore a semblance of justice and honour to this world, whilst making myself a healthy fortune on the side.
