To Wish Upon a Star

It is impossible to get what we want unless we actually know what it is that we want.

And to know what we want is not only about knowing what we do not want. 

To wish upon a star

To want something. Someone.

Truly. Passionately.

A home. A job. A partner.

To build a mental list. 

A written list.

The criteria to be met. 

The qualities that are essential.

It can be detailed, extensive.

As long as it's honest. 

People may judge.

People will judge.

They'll say it's unrealistic. 

And they will be right. 

Only if you let them be.

Here is to not settling for the "good enough" stuff. 

To being patient while discovering what we truly desire. 

And to simply believing.
