Day 98. If wishes were horses then beggars would ride. Or, how about, if wishes were fishes then the sea would be full. But, wishes are usually just flights of fancy and seldom come true. We used to say that if you took a dandelion puff and blew the seeds into the wind, made a wish, and one of the seeds traveled around the world then your wish would come true. I think there is just as much of a possibility of that seed traveling around the world as there is for most wishes to come true. And yet, we planted more dandelions than I would care to admit to. I guess in a way I still wish for the impossible. I wish people would learn what manners are. I wish they would be more courteous. And, I wish parents would teach their children how to be young ladies and gentlemen. But alas, all I can do is teach my own children, and pray for the rest. Wishes may be just seeds in the wind but prayer works.
