If Only I Had a Genie!

Random Quote: "When you really love someone, you don’t need proof. You can feel it.” ~Cyrus, the genie, Once Upon a Time in Wonderland

     Okay. I'll admit it. The above random quote really hasn't anything to do with this post. However, the fact that it was espoused by the adorable actor, Peter Gadiot, from the short-lived television show-Once Upon a Time in Wonderland- just needed to be shared. And he did play a genie on the show, so it does fit in actually... Seriously. It's a good quote. And he is handsome. I will claim the fifth to any questions beyond that. Thank you. 

     Moving on. 

     I was thinking just the other day: what would I do if I were given three wishes? 

     We all know this is a very important question. Mainly because it would never happen. I don't lend genies any credence. I know they have no bearing on life and can't take the place of Jesus in any way. That said, I did think of what would happen if one day I were given the blessing of three wishes. 

     Let's be real. Everyone wants three wishes. So, I thought about my own wishes. For about three seconds. It didn't take long to come up with truly selfish wishes. Granted, I didn't say these wishes would be anything but selfish. I mean, they are wishes afterall and this is just pretend. 

     So, go with me on this journey. 

     Wish #1: A never-ending library filled with books. Tons of books. Never-ending rooms of books. Books. Books. Books. 

     Yes, I know you saw that one coming. 

     Wish #2: The ability to live in this library without encountering anything unpleasant; i.e. bills, people, etc. 

     Okay. I may give myself a loophole for seeing people and all of that. And I'll need a way to eat. I'll figure that into wish #2 at some point. Stop getting nit-picky people! Remember, this is pretend! 

     Wish #3: Enough money to cover the cost of living so that I may never be obliged to leave said library. 

     Well. I have to be practical afterall. 

     You may be wondering why I wouldn't wish for world peace or something. Instead, I've been completely selfish with my three wishes. You have a point. Yet, I don't want to wish for something which I hope will happen without the trickery of a genie wish. I don't want to wish for something that needs to happen because of the unity of hearts and minds. Zion will be whether I get my three wishes or not. I don't think I have to worry about that at all. 

     So, yeah. I wished for three selfish wishes. I know they won't be coming true any time soon, but at least I've thrown them out into the abyss of hope. Remember last week in my Thanks for Giving 5, I mentioned my thanksgiving for faith and hope? That's what I'm sharing with you now. 

It's nice to have hopes and dreams and wishes. 

What are your hopes and dreams? 

What would you wish for if you had three wishes? 

    Feel free to share! I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thanks for reading!
