This may sound cheesy, but I would wish to be happy.

My first thought would be to wish for health, because without it enjoying life is very difficult. But then I can remember being young and poor, and life was often a struggle.

So happiness is my wish. :o
 
I wish that my dad had a better life with no illness and that he had not died so young alone at home on the first day of the year with a broken heart. I love you dad and im so sorry for not doing enough. I wish it wasent you if i could i would trade places with you without a doubt or hessitation. I love you very much more than you ever knew. xx:(
 
To live out TO THE FULLEST God’s perfect plan for me. Because there’s never been anything I’ve really wanted, like money or success or a family or love, but I’ve ALWAYS had a nagging fear of not fulfilling some grand heroic mission… that I don’t know what should entail… :rolleyes:… so I always pray that God guide my life, career, etc., towards that paticular mission… or whatever I should be doing.

Honestly?

I know it sounds selfish and small-minded, but I wish I could have the body that I had when I was in college, with a thin belly, strong legs and feet, smaller boobs, no upper arm flappers, low blood pressure, and a bladder that can stay quiet without meds. 😦

I feel your pain, sister! Not really the bladder or blood pressure part, but oh, to have my 21 year old body, and realize what a gift it was, instead of thinking I wasn’t ‘good enough’ !! :banghead:

Stop wishing — this is one wish that can come true! I wanted a college degree, too. I went back to college at the age of 45 and got my degree after being out of school since 1971, marrying and raising two children! I have never regretted it — you are never too old to learn!

Do it!

AMEN

I wish I could sing.

I mean, really, really well…so good that I could make it my career.
 
I would wish for a major lottery win so I could take care of my family members that still remain.

A selfish wish: I would wish that, before I leave Canada upon my retirement in 4 years, that someone in the Province of Ontario would invite me to lunch, or to dinner in his or her home. I have lived here more than 11 years and only once while I have lived here has someone in this Province including the people of my church (and I have attended six churches in search of a congregation that takes notice of me) has ever invited me to his or her home. In five years no one at my office invited me to lunch until I had a meltdown after my Daddy died and nobody in the office organized a card, sent me flowers, or even passed the word that Daddy had died – then one woman who was the Managing Partners assistant invited me to lunch once because she could not believe that nobody had comforted me (except my boss, who is wonderful, and a woman whom I had sent a card when her mother died).

If I won the lottery as above, I would spend a lot of time taking lonely people to lunch and inviting them to my home, and I would establish a foundation for heaping coals of fire on the heads of the indifferent, unfriendly, secretive people of this Province.\ and teaching them how socialism has sapped the souls right out of them.

World Peace is rubbish if you would not extend a hand to the woman in the next office. And I mean that particularly for all those of you who spent your time boo-hooing about Michael Jackson, a Hollywood freak who wouldnt give you the back of his hand, and walk right past people in your midst that you could comfort and befriend.
 
that I had never aborted my son and daughter over 30 years ago.

Thinking super-powered wishes:The ability to make everyone obey me by making them want to obey me. (As in, they are extremely happy to do so.)
I’m sure I’d abuse this one a lot, but I’d also end war (etc) forever. There’d be more good than bad.

Another one:
To make everyone in the world a lot more logical when it comes to beliefs. (Evidence more required for people to form decisions than how it is now.) Obviously, sometimes decisions would need to be made with not enough info/evidence, but I’m mostly talking about people jumping to outrageous beliefs, even with no evidence. (Ex: No more Muslim suicide bombers.)
I think this one is the best one because it seems to carry the least amount of problems. It just means people will make informed decisions whenever possible.

So you would take over Gods job and this time you would make us all puppets you could manipulate at will?

I suppose this is the reason He is God and we are not.
 
I wish I could heal people and raise them from the dead, like Jesus did.🙂

I already made my wish but I ditto you on that. My dad died thinking no one cared. I’ll never get over that.:nope:
I guess that’s why I wished for what I wished.

I remember reading somewhere that if everyone in the world was told that he or she had 15 minutes of life left, the phone lines would be jammed with people calling other people to say I Love You.

Why not pretend that starting now, you have 15 minutes to live, and call somebody with that very important message? Those three words may be the difference to someone between life and death.
