Does my metabolism count as "looks?" Because, technically, that has more to do with health. I feel like I work so hard and lose weight so slowly. It's not that I don't want to work for it - I want the satisfaction of accomplishing weight loss - I just wish it weren't so difficult.
Sometimes I wish I weren't so sensitive to things like violence or sad stories. I mean, a little (read: normal) sensitivity is good. I don't want to be totally desensitized to these things. I just want to finish Lost (about to start the last season...I'm a little sad to see it end) or watch the news without having nightmares.
I also wish I were more trusting. I'm starting to realize that trust isn't really about whether the other person is trustworthy but more about whether I'm open to taking a chance that they are. Eventually, everyone I know is going to let me down in some way, and I'll let them down, too. We humans tend to be flawed that way. But that doesn't mean I can never trust them at all. *shrug* I'm getting better at it. I'm more trusting than I was five years ago.
Overall, though, I'm pretty satisfied with who I am and the process I have gone through to get there.
