I’m sure everyone has watched a movie, and wished that the magical Genie movie character could pop into their lives. But…what would you wish for? There are so many times a day, we as people say, “I wish”. You wish your bed made itself, you wish gas was free, you wish you were a millionaire, but if the time truly came what would you actually say. I sure know what I would wish for.
Wish 1: I wish everyone I love would never fall ill or be in emotional distress.
If no one fell ill or was upset, there would be more joy and less stress. As my grandparents, aunts and uncles have aged, illness has fell upon many of them. This is one of the hardest things to see. Watching someone you love, feel pain is horrible and having the ability to take that away would be amazing. This would definitely be my first wish, and if I only had one, this would be my only wish.
Wish 2: I wish I could see where I will end up 10 years depending on the different choices I make.
If I was able to see the different ways my life could play out, there would be a lot more certainty in my life. There would be a lot less stress. As a college student, every semester is important. Every choice I make as a young adult has an impact and can change what my future looks life. Being able to see the consequences, both good and bad, would be extremely helpful.
Wish 3: I wish every dollar I spent could be re-spent again.
Although, I do believe the value of earning money and working hard for what you want is extremely important, once the money is earned re-using it would be nice. Having a job throughout high school and college, earning and keeping money was always a challenge. As much as I earned, I spent. The ability to take the money I have earned and re-spend it would be amazing, especially as I am entering the “broke college student” phase of life.
