If You Could Have One Thing In The World, What Would It Be?


Have you ever contemplated what you'd wish for if you found the magic lamp and were granted three wishes?  What if you could have just one wish?  We've watched the scene play out time and time again that the selfish motives of the wishes often turn against them and there are negative consequences to the wish.  Then there's the noble yet hollow ring of the cliched answer of  "all I wish for the world is....world peace."

Don't get me wrong, a heavier wallet could be used to bring harmony to your family or to other's whose lives that you bless with generous donations.  Still I have been able to poke holes in every answer that has come to my simplistic, idealistic and sometimes foolish mind.  What generally are our motivations for wishes?  Well that's where the answer that I have yet to find any iota of blemish on it zapped me like that giant genie had responded to my contemplation, meditation and querries. 

The revelation is almost hard to even put in written word.  The mystery wasn't found in a book or whispered to me by some wise man.  The simplicity is so pure, yet the power that shot through my body was evident enough so as to almost buckle my knees and sob like a man imprisoned for 35 years who just had his first sip of crisp cold clean water and a morsel of fresh baked bread.  The impact  of this veil lifted from my eyes brought the sun's warm rays to my face and illuminated all the wonders around me.

So what would I ask for if I had only one thing in the world in my posession that I could share without end with everyone of you?...It is simply love.  If I could have but one thing to power all of my decisons and hold forever in my heart, yet every time I acted I would ask myselft if it is coming from a place of love...I could not go wrong.  I would have all that I ever truely need.  If you would just contemplate the purity of love for 5 minutes a day your life would forever change.  Thank you to all of my loyal readers and new alike.  I wish for  each of you, a heart full of love.
