My dear friend Katie turns 23 today and as a birthday wish, she wanted friends to answer the question What kind of person do you want to be? Perhaps its more appropriate to ask What kind of person do you strive to be? or some other formulation of the question that acknowledges more fully that I AM the person I want to be, since I am continually striving to evolve and be the person I want to be. You feel me? Let us not negate what already is in asking what we want later.
Feel free to respond yourselves in response to this post (and any of the questions above). Here is my best go at...
What kind of person do I want to be?
loving, silly, playful, engaged, thoughtful, kind, creative, inspirational, centered, giving ... i want to be the type of person who cooks (literally and metaphorically) for others and just smiles, asking nothing in return ... adventurous, fearless, sometimes carefree, dedicated, honest, true, in-my-own-way confident, quietly myself, connected (internet not included), invested, responsible, sharing, reflecting

I want to be the person that I am, only better? :-)
Much as I wish Katie a belated happy birthday, together with gift, it's a really hard one; even though the question is one I'm devoted full-time to answering. I concur with what you have said, whilst turning it round a little: the person I want to be is in a sense the person I am already. I just want to be what I am more fully, to obey my destiny, enact my potential, enjoy what I have. I'm a part of the universe helping shape it. If I use my energies being me I need not define the result, for I embody it.
I found you (by the way) using Blogger's Profile facility to find others with similar interests, via the keyword "sensuality".
I want to be someone whom people look forward to being around . Someone whom people look upon for help and guidence. I'm a 14 year old that wants to be a successful lawyer and help people as much as I can .
