I think that most of us have found ourselves daydreaming a time or two, or in one form or another. We may be seduced by an accomplishment of some personal goal, dream or wish, or our desires may in fact speak to a larger forum for something to occur in the world. Others, may dream in metaphors embracing the spiritual and/or religious elements of the world as like whirling dervishes from an old but familiar tale. Be that as it may, we all have dreams in one form or another.
The other night, when the sky was clear and millions of stars were blinking their light, with warm accompanying rain shower announcing it's soft presence, I started thinking about about how my Mother used to tell me as a little girl "wish on that star" as she pointed to the sky. This made me consider what I would wish for now, or what I would like to do or see happen during my own life time.
Here is what I came up with for the moment:
1. If money were no object, I would love to see England, Ireland, the South Pacific Islands.
2. I would love to see peace in the world, to be able to switch on the tv and see countries coming together instead of being at war.
3. I want to live long enough to see my grandchildren graduate college, to see them married and to hold my great-grandchildren, as well.
4. I wish I had taken dance lessons as a child, as I would love to continue in advanced dancing lessons. I have always had a love for dance and music, just wish I would have explored it more thoroughly.
5. I would love to see a cure for cancer and for AIDS, as well.
6. I would love to be able to be an ambassador of good will and provide care for the impoverished children in Africa, Somalia and other parts of the world .
7. I would love to swim with the dolphins one time in my life.
8. When it is my time to leave this earth, I want to know that my children are happy, cared for and secure.
9. See a time where all people in this country had affordable health care.
10. See a wealth of treatment centers for the mentally ill and the developmentally disabled.
11. See treatment and rehabilitation available for all forms of addiction.
