Wishes

I wish. Two powerful words, but what are they? Are you wishing for something you have no control over? Or are you wishing something would happen that you actually can control? If that is the case why not make it a goal? For example, I wish I could get married in Vegas. For me that is a wish that is not going to happen. Now, I wish I had a different job. That I have control over, so therefore it should not be a wish, it should be a goal. Something I work towards.
I think people have the wrong concept of what a wish is, a wish is something you want to happen but you cannot make it happen. When people say they wish they could find the perfect mate for example, that is something they cannot make happen. Because there is no such thing, no one is perfect and we all have flaws. I know what you are thinking, perfect for me. Still, no such animal, we are always, eventually going to see the flaws.
I know all of the flaws that the Irishman has; I hope he knows mine by now. I would never list those flaws in public, to me that is a disloyalty. Even if they are small flaws, those are things you discuss with each other. Decide if you can live with them, flaws are different than habits. Bad habits can be changed, if you are willing to do so. For example, a bad habit is leaving dirty socks by the chair or leaving your boots in the middle of the living room floor. One of those bad habits is mine by the way. A flaw is something you cannot change, even if you wanted to. For example, an insatiable need to read all Hollywood gossip. That is mine by the way; I will not list what I see as his, as once again, I view that as disloyalty in a relationship.
But back to the wishing, people, stop wishing, start doing, make goals, clear cut goals, then set out a plan to achieve those goals. If the mind believes it, then you can achieve it. I believe in you, go out and make it happen.
