Just give up?

Don’t. Though I wouldn’t blame you if you do. All the talk about positive energy and going for what you want… I have a hard time wishing for stuff like, say a million dollars. Of course, I may be different than y’all, since my mind works a bit like this:

Me: I’m wishing for it!
Myself: No, you can’t, then X won’t get it.
I: We both deserve it.
Myself: X deserves it, too. What makes you so outright* special?
I: We are ALL special.
Myself: Then why should you get it over X?
I: Why should X get it over me?
Myself: Maybe X will do more good with the money.
Me: Well, just maybe I will do better with it.

Before you know it y and b and the rest of the English language alphabet are all equal partners in this exchange. And not long after the Spanish alphabet would join in since I happen to know it!

Imagine if this positive thinking, secret stuff was foolproof — this planet couldn’t support all that would be asked for and, of course, deserved. I think the world would implode.

But then, it could be like everything else: He who wishes in best form or is the best at strong arming others out of the way will get the million first… but how long before someone wishes and deserves it more?
