I can’t tell you for the number of times I’ve wished for this type of thing. As you all know, if you’ve read any of my posts, I’ve been sick most of my adult life. So, one of those three wishes would be health. I would love to re-do my college experience with good health, both mental and physical. No, this is not so I could party and experience the typical highs and lows of a college experience. It would be so I could go through the experience in a more “normal” way. I would go to class more. I had a hard time with my illness. I would add a minor and try to soak in as much as I could.
I don’t really believe that money= happiness. I believe having money can bring peace of mind, but wealth in general is not an indicator of happiness. So, me second wish would be peace. Internal peace, external peace. Peace with who I am, and my place in this crazy world. I find that many people who struggle with identity issues, are often missing peace.
I’m smart enough to know that money does not equal happiness. However, I also know that without financial security, your life can be very difficult. I think my third wish would be for a life of financial security. Overall, it may not be very exciting. What is excitement if you don’t have a good life to enjoy when the excitement stops?
Call me boring, if you want. Boring is sometimes better than excitement, and for me right now, boring and predictable is what I need.
