A lofty dream vs. a mere wish.

Wishful thinking. I practice it. Maybe in the wrong way. Always to benefit me.  Even when a wish benefits others. Still, it benefits me. In round-about ways. Maybe that’s why some of my wishes don’t come true. They are totally selfish wishes. I’m trying to avoid wishing. To see what happens. Maybe that’s a devious way. To get my wishes.  By fooling the wish granter. If there is such a being. I suspect there is. Oh, not necessarily the creator.  But one of his assistants. Or a lieutenant. Or a crony. Often I disguise my wishes as dreams. A wonderful dream for this and that. Achieving a lofty dream seems more worthy than obtaining a mere wish. –Jim Broede
