One Wish
I was asked recently if I could have one wish, what would I wish for. This is somethng I have thought about a few times over the years, and here is the conclusion I have come to. You have to be very careful with this since no matter what you wish for is going to have consequences. Of course, anyone who knows anything about being granted wishes knows that you are not allowed to ask for more wishes. THAT is not allowed. LOL. So you really are confined to just one. And knowing how the universe works, Ive also come to the conclusion that you have to be VERY specific. For instance.....you can not just wish for "my own island". If you did...here is how your consequences will work. Yes, you will get your own island. HOWEVER, since you are allowed only one wish you are not allowed to specify that you want that island stocked with food and drink and the sexiest blonde/brunette/redhead you can think of. Technically that would be four wishes. So what you are stuck with is an island. Probably all to yourself, good luck finding edible food that tastes as good as cheeseburgers or pizza, and that tall margarita you were thinking about sipping on down on the beach? Well you can forget that too. So have fun with that island wish. Same thing goes for almost everything else you could possibly wish for. Money.......IRS problems (or family you never even knew you had comes crawling out of the woodwork). Fame......Oh SURE. But they forget to tell you that the fame will be so much you wont even be able to go to the bathroom without having 50 million cameras pointed at your.....ahem. Ok......so how about a spouse 20 years younger than you. PERFECT! POOF. You were 60, suddenly you are 80 and that cute little person you are married to is STILL standing next to you and is STILL 60. So what else.......okay......POWER. Suddenly you are the most powerful person in the world. What they didnt tell you there is suddenly you are also going to be the person with the biggest hit on your head. How about youth? You stay young while everyone you love and care about grows old and passes away. So back to what I wish.........Well, I think my answer would be that I would like to have my depression cured. Ive tried thinking of a consequence to that one and cant really unless I wanna stay up nights concerned that I wont be giving money to the pharmacueticals for depression meds anymore. I think I am safe there. Besides, if I could cure my depression, I think I would be perfectly alright trying to make my own fame and fortune. I would be healthy enough to take care of myself and care FOR myself and my girls. So yeah. I wish............my depression was cured. What would YOU wish for?
