I wish

I wish I had all I ever need, never having to wait.

I wish I was free, having to work for my own money and going out and coming in daily.

I wish my life was more put together, like my friend's own.

I wish my life was fun, not being stuck with books. Being the life of the party would not be so bad.

I wish I had more than enough money, not having to taste poverty or lack.

I wish people understand me and my feelings better.

I wish I can speak freely to people without being shy or getting intimated by them.

I wish I had a longer hair, not having to plait it but just style it and show off.

I wish the colour of my skin was brighter and fairer.

I wish I had a dark skin. After all, black is beautiful"they say.

I wish it wasn't me who did all those mistakes in the past.

I wish I was the first born, the perfect position to boss my siblings around.

I wish I was the last born, billing my elder ones and receiving free gifts would have made sense.

I wish I was earning daily, never having to wait till the end of the month before having to spend.

I wish I had a magnificent voice and could sing Alto, Tenor and Soprano altogether.

I wish I was slim and fit, not having to worry about dieting and exercising.

I wish I was more chubby so people don't have to ask if I eat at all.

I wish I didn't have to sleep alone at night. Having a room mate would have been better.

I wish I had the room to myself, nothing beats privacy.

I wish I didn't have to go to school. It is too stressful.

I wish going on a break was not a thing. Staying at home is boring.

I wish I was in a relationship, having someone to call me at intervals and randomly send me gifts.

I wish I didn't have to be accountable to a person (my partner) every single time.

I wish my daughter will reduce talking too much. I need to rest.

I wish my daughter will open up to me and reduce her screentime.

I wish I had more clothes, variety, they say is the best.

I wish my clothes were not this much. My back aches from washing so much and having to arrange it in the wardrobe.

...

The list goes on, on and on. The truth is everyone we admire don't have it all figured out. You think your situation is the worst? You are wrong. Do you know that people are still looking up to you?

Don't stress yourself out by worrying about things you cannot change. Well, we are not meant to work through life alone. God is there for you and for me. He is always willing to help us so far we ask and trust him to do it.

And this is also to tell us never to compare ourselves with anybody.

Remember, you are unique. You are beautiful. You are loved.
