I always find myself wishing a lot these days...Wishing that there'd be no classes, wishing I'd lose 10 pounds! or even wishing that the day would come to a close (rest time!!!) and that there'd be no quiz. Those simple wish wish wishes.
I'd like to believe that if you wished really hard, whatever that wish was would come true. Like some greater being would hear your thoughts and realize you needed a break. But, as my friend cautioned, you should be careful of what you wished for. So true.
You know the common saying that when you're in love all your stored up wishes start coming out or something like that? I think it's true. And you cant help but keep on wishing. Wishing you'd bump into him, or that he'd notice you, or wishing he felt the same way.
But you have to realize that wishing can only take you so far. It should come with faith and reason. Also, the courage to accept what you cannot change. Because sometimes no matter how hard you wish, it just doesn't come true for a gazillion possible reasons all leading to one thing: it wasn't meant for you. After you've exhausted all your effort, and time, and energy, and have invested so much emotionally, you have to realize and convince yourself that maybe, just maybe there's something greater.Acceptance. Or maybe the timing wasn't just right.
My friend was so true when she told me that timing was everything. I think I'm starting to believe that. But here I am, a constant dreamer yet cynic, hoping against hope, wishing against the odds that things would go my way because all my stored up wishes are running out...
