Wishes (Post 38)

If you want to start a ten cent crazy book - read post 1-4 to find out how

Ok, let's talk about the "Wish" list, in your ten cent crazy book.

A wish list should be a list of things that are not material things.

Your list might look like:

Peace on Earth

I wish I were __________(fill in the blank)-smarter, prettier, taller, thinner, friendlier

I wish I had ___________(again fill in the blank)- more friends, less friends, a better job, less responsibility in my life, a boyfriend, a girlfriend

I wish I were more in control of______________(fill in the blank)

I wish my family were_____________________

I wish I could change my__________________

Anyway, you get the idea.

The point is to think about these things.

You should picture in your mind the perfect life.

Not to give you more stress, but to help with the stress, and to realize that some things we can change and others we can’t.

Ok, why make a wish list.

When you make a wish list and look at it over and over, your brain seems to help you deal with things and gives you ways to cope. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but someday, your brain will figure out how to either make your wishes come true or make them less important. You will add and take things off this list all the time. Your wishes will change with time, but wishing makes life interesting.
