I Wish.....

That was very pretty, Spacemaan....

 

Mickey Newburys' words

 

the electoral college would sprout some cajones and shit can chump. its like the one chance in its existence to actually do what its there for.

 

I wish for a lovely Christmas

 

i wish i could live some place where no one hated logic or strangeness, nor worshiped money.

i wish people could see how they create what makes each other unhappy and wanted to avoid doing so.

i wish people would actually honestly analyze things like that, instead of telling each other to assume and believe,
because that's all they've ever seen anyone else doing.

 

I wish genetic trials would hurry and be successful for everyone!

 

I wish for a safe , fun filled trip in Mexico for my wife and I

 

I wish I was going with you Pete...lol

 

still wish i wouldn't have to own a piece of land or get a permit, to build what i can afford to buy everything i would otherwise need from the hardware store.

 

i wish people believed in things that didn't want people to be afraid of them.

 

i wish pete gets nibbled by sharks on his trip

not like a big chunk just a nibble to remember ....

 

I wish I did not feel like I was being led to the death chamber today.....:

I wish people would spell lose....as in lose something.....LOSE and not LOOSE.

 

you are loosing it


i don't like that either mg



also your you're

 

lol at the loose...i know exactly what thread ..it drives me nuts too

 

i wish more real world architecture were more heavily influenced by fantasy world building.
i don't mean single family dwellings for the extremely wealthy,
but public spaces and multiple use and occupancy structures.
(and with of course a lot more space for nature and vegitation,
and a lot less surface pavement. and i really wish the entertainment industry,
would stop maintianing the false romance of the automobile,
in transportation planning and policy)

 

I wish for no more snow til December

 

i wish they all could be california girls

 

i got my wish for a next button on top moblie. .

 

I wish a wish was a real wish!

 

i wish grammar nazi's would get a life, but i do find them good for the occasional giggle.
(and of course if i were writing for publication or anything critical, i would value their observations highly)

do i wish everyone's every wish would come true?
well in a way, to the extent of their actions and how those actions add up statistically, they do.
and that, unfortunately, because most people don't really think that much about what they wish for,
and what its likely to result in if it did come true, is precisely the problem.

but i do wish the world was still all forest, or nearly so.
that human populations had never grown beyond balance with their environment.
that trains had been invented sooner but kept small.
that cultures encouraged people to be more imaginative rather then try to imitate each other
and that means the kind of little houses everyone would be allowed to build for themselves and encouraged to live in.
that the land itself wasn't owned, but only the house and a little ways around it for people to be quiet and not mess it up.

mostly as always, i wish i didn't have to own a car, which i don't, to not have to live in a city, which i do.

i wish every street was a park instead, and every parking lot a japanese garden instead.

and that you could build, i mean nothing to stop you, no one to tear it down, whatever you wanted to,
with everything you could find at the hardware store, and everything already there in nature.

wish there were few enough of us we could live like that.

wish no one ever thought they were doing the world a favor to destroy the positive creative expressions of others.

or rob each other of thinking their own creative thoughts.

when i was little, and we didn't have them yet, i wished we had these computers and internet we have now.

i'm still glad we have them, but i wish a lot of other things hadn't gone from bad to worse at the same time.

(not that we aren't better off in a lot of ways too. just better and worse both, and always seem to be)

i wish it wasn't so easy for me to wander of the subject (though it IS ALL related)

i wish the cultural consensus wanted the right kinds of technologies,
(instead of being driven by the illusion of personal gain at the expense of others)

i wish there was no pavement wider then a sidewalk.

and it followed the shortest path between where people wanted to go,
while winding around to avoid needlessly chopping down trees and to keep the gradient easy,
instead of ever being layed out in a rectangular grid.

and was surrounded on all sides by wild natural plants, or where someone felt like it, cultivated gardens.

that no one ever pulled or killed 'weeds' just to be doing so.

the thing is, we COULD live in that kind of a world, IF, as i wish,
people didn't think everything under the sun and moon, were more important then doing so.
(mostly ideology, belief, and so called personal gain)

i wish the problem with i wish, wasn't that i could fill a 23 volume encyclopedia with my i wishes.
