I wish there were that one programming language that did everything. Fast as C, elegant as C++, easy to learn as Python, simple as Go and with a community as big as that of JavaScript. (Sorry if I missed your fav programming language)

Might want to check Crystal. I think the slogan used to be "The speed of C with the elegance ruby" or something like that.

There is also Nim. This one is already in a "stable stage" and it can compile to C and javascript, so there is a lot you can do with it.

These are new languages so the community support is limited, but I think they have great potential.

How did I miss that! I have been trying my hands on java and I absolutely love it. I don't know why there's so much hate about it. java is really cool!

Yes, I wish the same. But if not all then I wish if Python could be fast enough and have a community like JS.
