I really wish for something very simple, one thing, but I can't tell him.
@Sb145
Try it! I finally told someone I liked them after 3 years and we've gone on a few dates. It's casual because we're going to different places next year, but it's been nice to have it out there. I don't know if this is what you meant, but still - courage has rewards!
@Sb145 All the best! I wish your wish to be fulfilled :)
@ResilientLucky
Thank you. One can only hope.
I wish that I find peace and serenity on my mini vacation next week. This will be the first time I ever have more than 3 days off. People say I deserve it, but I feel like I don't. I'm always worrying and always anxious to get things done. I hope I can slow down and enjoy the moment. I wish that things can slow down, and I can slow down along with it.
Wishing never made anything come true.

I wish my brother Tommy was still here. I wish he knew just how much we loved him. How much he meant to everyone. I wish I could of seen the signs of loneliness, hurt, brokenness. But it's to late because he's gone. And not by fate, destiny, or God. But by his own choice. Tommy I hope you can see how much we love and miss you. I hide it a lot. I show I'm fine and good. But on the inside I'm dying. I'm hurt. Confused. Disoriented, yes still. Your always in the back of my mind and always in my heart. I love you and miss you big brother
Wish my depression is gone so I can truck on like everyone else in the world rather than falling face down
I wish to find happiness and to not burden the ones around me.
I wish my insurance will cover my braces
I wish my biopsy will show I have breast cancer so I don't have to think about sucide anymore
I wish for the happiness of my friends and loved ones who are important to me.
