Just A Thought ~ WISH-FULFILLMENT
"It is not good for
all our wishes to be filled. Through sickness we recognize
the value of health; through evil, the value of good;
through hunger, the value of food; through exertion,
the value of rest."
~ Greek Saying ~
Our wishes seldom come true, and this
is just as well, for we would lose our resilience
and become soft if they did. Usually, we just have
to come to terms with things as they are, and, if
we don't like them, find a way around, through or
over them. Life has always been like this, and there's
no reason to suppose it will ever be any different.
Magic wands are things from fairy-tales. Most of what
we have has come about through work and struggle ~
on someone's part, if not our own ~ rather than by
wishing and praying.
