I wish a million things,
I wish the world were a nicer place,
I wish people preferred daughters to sons,
I wish the lonely never felt so,
I wish children always understood adults,
I wish adults always respected children,
I wish those who were successful also found time to enjoy their success,
I wish the rich also used their wealth to better the world,
I wish that all children were loved equally,
I wish our loved ones were never taken away from us,
I wish people lived without regrets,
I wish everyone thought of giving back,
wish people bore no grudges,
I wish no one ever got hurt,
I wish no one took anyone for granted,
I wish people did not get attached to each other,
I wish even the smallest of deeds never went unnoticed,
I wish everyone always kept the big picture in mind,
I wish life was fair to one and all,
I wish the selfish never almost always got away,
I wish some people were not born too emotional
I wish, on the other hand, some people wouldn't bottle up their emotions,
I wish only like-minded people ended up living together,
I wish relationships would always stand the test of time,
I wish people would not take each other for granted in a relationship,
I wish people learnt as they grew and aged,
I wish people would remain the same despite their circumstances,
I wish there were no secrets kept,
I wish people were more grateful for what they had,
And I finally wish I had not started to wish in the first place.
