Contentment

"Do you know what happened to the little boy who got everything he ever wanted?" asked Willy Wonka.

"No, what happened to him?" said Charlie with eyes widening.

"He lived happily ever after."

I got everything I ever remember wanting. Never peace on earth or a sky dancer, but everything else I remember wanting, from a pogo-stick to an Easy Bake Oven to a car to a college education to the guys I've had crushes on (except one :P ). This is a statement to the universe that I am gratefully satisfied, and I will do everything in my power to remain content with everything the future deems appropriate to give.
