If you could have one wish...

[teacups]

What would it be?

It can be anything except more wishes.
Would you be shallow and ask for a new sports car?
Or would it be world peace? Perfect health?
What...?
Would you stop to wonder what the effect of your wish might be on others?


ONE WISH. No sneaky combining a bunch of stuff and calling it A WISH.

 

[Hercules10]

To have three more wishes.

To have three more wishes.

I would wish for world peace-honestly I would Too many people die for STUPID reasons in this world.

 

[7165red]

No question "Perfect health" with that you can have almost everything.

Pay off that credit card. Then I could help the economy again.

My fiance and I canceled our wedding for financial and personal reasons. I paid for 75% of my wedding dress which I LOVE. I would wish for someone to help me decide if I should.

1. pick it up in hopes I will either still get married to him(not likely) or keep it for someday when I meet prince charming, storing it at my mom's house.

2. pick it up and try to sell it on ebay even though I LOVE this dress.

3. not pick it up and loose the money because I'm afraid if i see it I won't want to sell it and may end up wearing it to work or something.

I've lost a months worth of sleep on this. I'm not sure why this is so hard for me. It was the 1st time I ever went wedding dress shopping, first time I ever tried one on. I wish someone would tell me what to do

my wish is more pathetic then anything..... sorry.

I once asked my beloved mother-in-law that question and she said without hesitation: To never outlive her children - even if it meant dying tomorrow.

The love in that statement made me catch my breath. She died in my arms 3 years ago after a long illness with her fondest wish fulfilled.

It made me re-think my one wish....I still haven't figured it out, but I'm working on it!

I hope everyone's wishes come true!

Besides world peace, there are some other wishes that could really benefit the world. Like that there would be no drug use, or that drug abuse and alcoholism did not exisit. Think of all the crime caused by folks needed money for a fix. Think of all the DWIs.

One time I heard a preacher talking about how different the world would be if there was only sex within marriage. No more affairs, no more prosititution, etc.

My wish would be that my son didn't have autism...and all the things with it. He is 13 non-verbal, not potty trained, and has seizures every single day.

#1-Pick it up and keep it.

 

[ZephyrHawk]

I can't tell you. I've wished for the same thing ever since I can remember. Every birthday candle, every wishbone, every fountain.

 

[Barb D]

Hmmm.... Do I go with no more migraines -- ever -- or should I wish for enough money to pay off 3 kids' college, credit cards, and fund a reasonably comfortable retirement? I don't think either one is too much to ask.

 

[perla75]

It would be for me & my loved ones to be happy and worry-free for the rest of our lives

That had to be hard to post. I am sorry you are hurting. Your choices are all difficult. How much money would you lose if you just walked away from the dress?

If it were me I would pick it up and keep it since you have so much invested in it. If, in time, you decide to sell it or whatever, you have that option. Probably the last thing I would do would be to not pick it up and lose the money- that has got to be a lot of money.

I will say though, that despite your obvious pain, you still made me chuckle imagining someone showing up to work in a wedding dress. It made me think of that episode of Friends where they are all wearing the wedding dresses

Sondra, what a brave wonderful woman you are. There is no greater love than that of a mother for her child, IMO.

My wish: to have done something I did not do, but should have. It would have changed lives, if I had only understood its importance.

Good Health for everyone would be my wish

I'm torn

My very first thought was "I want my Grandma back" I've been missing her a lot lately. I watched an episode of Extreme Makeover Home Edition and they helped this little old lady and she reminded me of my Grandma- I cried for a good ten minutes. As for how that would effect other people- I think the rest of the family feels the same way- she was an awesome lady.

Then I can't help but think that it would be nice to have either DH's or my father back- my kids desperately want a grandfather.

And lastly I think that it would be nice to have a huge house on a lot of land- DH and my dream- a big house that we could adopt a ton of kids and fill it up and enough land to grow most of our own food- fruit trees, huge veggie and fruit garden, etc..... oh and chickens for eggs! Or maybe it would be better to wish for lots of money so I could buy that and be financially independent as well.

I have no idea what I would pick. LOL

My wish is that your wish would come true. Hugs!

I'd wish for the economy to be stable again.
