When I was younger, I wanted to be a police-woman. I could go around arresting people and no one could arrest me because I would just arrest them back.
I wanted to build air pipes connecting Earth and other planets and shoo all our greenhouse gases into those planets. It wouldn’t harm them as it does us.
And then I went around telling people I wanted to become the President just to show them I could dream big.
Now, when I’m closer to all those dreams than I ever was, I don’t even want them.
All I want is to fulfill everyone’s expectations.
And they have such great expectations… They want me to reach such great heights. They know I will reach great heights. Their only worry is if they’ll live to see that day.
It would be so much more excruciating if you fail when everyone expects you to win.
That’s my only fear now.
And I have never felt more cowardly.
