Without hesitation I would wish for a Cure for Cancer.  There are 8 people in my life fighting the disease that took my Daddy..as some of you know, on my 36th birthday.  My Mom had bladder cancer removed a few months ago, my cousin who is on 48 has just had a tumor found in her chest, she is not smoker.  Another family member has months to live, same with a family friend...I could go on. 

I would simply wish for this insidious, heart-breaking disease to be gone...forever.

12 steps, that's a tough one! That's really tough, your right, awsmom8,  just because your an alcoholic, or go to AA, or anything similar, doesn't mean, you've completed your 12 steps, guilty as charged. My wish was for consistent integrity,....yet,..My Blue Book, probably hasn't seen daylight, passed chapter 2!  Through a great friend, since passed, I acquired , Bill Wilson's book,...."Pass It On.' People have problems, & need guidance, Bill Wilson, seems to keep it real! That's enough of that, I haven't even read the book,.....this is also a "come & get me," sign for gube to start firing on me. I'm looking forward to it, I just opened, it said,....Return to,.....Mike Shade,.....here's a shout out, to the memory, of Mike Shade! One cool cat, so he said, humor!

Girls, your wish has been granted.   ALL THINGS COME TO THOSE WHO WAIT," ..........( I say these words to make me glad),...But something answers,soft & sad,..."They come, but often come too late."...'Tout vient a' quisait attendre" Violet Fane

 Go Gube! I saw your blog yesterday, I can never read the other comments on something like this, until I've decided my own. My wish would be to have " CONSISTENT INTEGRITY."  With that, being noted,.......enough said.

If I had one wish, I'd wish for 3 more wishes...or maybe just my stock answer, whirled peas.

Me too Ruby-I am having a very very hard time. Just to give my son a hug. Thats what I want. And to tell him how much I love him. Ruby- You know just how I feel.

Ahhh, Ruby that's not selfish at all.   Very moving comment.  One day you'll be able to give him that hug and you won't ever have to miss him again.    I just want to give you a big ol' hug......long distance of course.   Just so you know I'm squeezing my arms together....really tight.    

I am afraid I am in a really selfish mood today, maybe I'll be better tomorrow.  If I could have one wish I would want to see my son again, just to gve him a big hug. As I said, maybe I'll be less selfish tomorrow. Just for Today....

BUT swili.......it was only one wish......you can't wish for world peace and the cure for cancer and cure hunger and disease.  ONE WISH!!!!!   I would waste it on me......but I would do so much good......like buy YOU a new care Swili!!!

That everyone on the face of the earth work 12 steps

That's a tough one, Gube.  There are so many wrongs I would love to be able to make right.  I guess I would start with a cure for cancer followed by a giant leap in mankind's evolvement to the point where they have an alternative to war.  Then I would wish for some way to ease world hunger and disease.  So many serious issues come to mind. 

After all the world is taken care of, I would wish for a car that starts, runs long enough to get me to where I want to go, and starts back up again to get me home.  My poor vehicle has had two AAA visits in the last week just to give the battery a jump.  Now I need to have it towed to the shop to find out why it is doing this.  AAA won't come up my street because it's too icy.  I have to wait until it thaws.  I hope that's not some time in May.

That's so nice of you to ask Gube....... I would wish for a winning Lottery ticket.  A nice big Jackpot...... I would buy the clerk a new car..... I would by my Dad a nice house up here.....I would set up accounts for each of the kids.  I would give each of my family and( extended family ) members $10,000 ( for tax reasons)  I'd buy my husband another Sea Ray..  with a pre-paid gas card....and a Beech Baron, brand spank'n new!!!!.   And my friends...my true friends.... I would help them out along the way.   Yep, I'd wish for that winning Lottery ticket.....I would have more fun spending money on other people than myself.   That would bring me so much more happiness.
