If you had three wishes, what would they be? (Do not ask for three more wishes)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n

I’m writing as I listen to Walk-Ins Welcome<\/a> with guest Melissa Chen I will try to keep that from affecting my writing here. <\/p>\n\n\n

That said, it is redirecting my thoughts, here.<\/p>\n\n\n

One: I could easily find three individual things health-wise that I’d like to be cured of. *quick STFW<\/a>* Okay. Found this<\/a>. Numbers 1-7, 9, 11-15 are all symptoms I deal with. So, my first wish would be, if not a cure, significant relief from those. MS is terrible, and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, even the worst person in the world. With Halloween on Thursday, there was a lot of attention to this guy who has a haunted house for which you have to sign a waiver, and if you actually make it through, you’d get something like $20,000. My thought about it was that I might be able to actually be able to make it through because of the things that are physical discomfort. No, I couldn’t. After listening more to the description, I doubt I’d pass the initial physical. So much for that. Waterboarding? Yeah, try a medical test where you actually pass out from pain.<\/p>\n\n\n

Two: Though this is really an outgrowth from the first, I really want to find something I desire again. At this point, there’s very little I want or value. There’s things that I’d be upset about if I lost, but, at the same time, I’ve lost I could delve more in to something in my personal life, here, but I won’t. The Gen X in me comes back with a feeble, “whatever.” Ultimately, I’m going to do what allows me to look at myself in the mirror (well, for as long as I’ve got a bit of vision left), but I’m not doing it out of some desire. I want to want something.<\/p>\n\n\n

And, here, I’m drawing a blank for what I’d want for number three. <\/p>\n\n\n

So, yeah, this prompt was a big failure. Maybe number three is better writing tomorrow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
