Wants + wishes

“I hope you will go out and let stories, that is life, happen to you, and that you will work with these stories... water them with your blood and tears and your laughter till they bloom, till you yourself burst into bloom.”-- Clarissa Pinkola Estés

I want a whole glorious twenty-four hours alone.
I want my toes in the sand and sun on my back.
I want to eat oysters and to sip on a beautiful drink full of bubbles.
I want the wishes that I made on cupcakes to come true.
I want to have more hope.
I want to plan a family trip to the West Coast.
I want hugs from some of my favorite people who I miss dearly.
I want to write a book.
​I want to buy a million perennials and replant the gardens around my home.
I want to savor each and every moment, before it slips away.
I want clean sheets & someone to fold the laundry and vacuum the floors.
I want more joy, more fun, more spontaneity and more adventure.
I want more.

I wish I had a time machine.
I wish that unicorns were real.
I wish that I could fly.
I wish that I could spend my entire summer outside.
I wish that I had answers to lingering questions.
I wish I made more time for hot salty baths.
I wish that I could take away her pain.
I wish that I had a home on the water.
I wish I had more time and space to create & write.
I wish that she could show up.
I wish that she could see how amazing she is.
I wish that I had more faith.
​What are you wanting and wishing?
