I wished a little wish sometime ago - I wished that I was a person with depth. I didn't want to be as superficial and as flippant as I was. While fun is still fun, there are certain things in life that shouldn't be brushed aside as easily and quickly, and taken a little bit more seriously. There're stuff that we should take time to mull over, to ponder, to think, and to chew over. I think people call it 'character'. I wanted to have a bit of a character.
Character is like the silver thread that is that runs through a piece of fabric. It is interwovened into the fabric, intertwining with other duller and coarser threads, but it stands out because of its colour, its texture. Its brilliance sets it apart from the rest of what surrounds it.
A silver thread of character - of integrity, of nobility, of great worth - that was my little wish, for myself.
