Making Wishes


I have been making some wishes lately...

I haven't really wished for world peace.
Or a new President.
Or even lower gas prices.

But I have been wishing for more patience.
And courage.
And the ability to love others despite their flaws.

I have been wishing for a bigger heart.
A heart so big that I can love everyone I meet.
(Including myself)

But mostly I wish that Christmas will come soon.
I miss my people.

p.s. I totally want to win this giveaway.

Your people miss you too. I believe in wishes. Entirely. We need wishes to bring us to tomorrow, and to give us security in thinking about that great abyss called the future.
