Wishes

My husband used to say that I live in "Pink fluffy bunny land". Truth be told - for most of my life I have walked around believing in my heart of hearts that anything is possible. Miracles happen. I am lucky. Put good things out into the world and good things will come back to you.

But in the last few years, I have completely lost that feeling. Grant hates when I say this but I have felt cursed. I came on this vacation and started writing this blog to try and get to the bottom of this darkness that I have been carrying around.

So at some point this morning, I was thinking about one of my favorite disney characters, Jiminy Cricket. But I couldn't put my finger on why he was one of my favorites so I looked him up. It is because he is the one who sings 'When You Wish Upon a Star'. Long before I ever heard about "the Secret" and "the Law of Attraction", there was Jiminy.

When you wish upon a star

Makes no difference who you are

Anything your heart desires

Will come to you

I realized as I read the lyrics, that I still truly believe deep inside in the power of making wishes. I felt a little spark of the old me in there. A little hope.
