I had a thought pop into my head…that when I was a teenager I
was jealous of a friend who was getting braces. I didn’t like the way my teeth
were growing in apparently.
At another time, I think I was upset because I didn’t need
glasses – I can’t remember, but this thought came to me as I pushed my glasses
that I have been wearing for years now while working on the computer (not quite
sure how much they help)….… I’ll have to ask my Mom about it because it was
just a fleeting thought…not sure if it’s real, but it feels real.
After that came to me, I had to laugh a little to myself (and
then, of course, write it all down before the aftermath of everyday life wipes
it away)…I have had so much work done on my teeth (that never had braces on-
even though a dentist once thought I did because I “have the perfect bite”…not
anymore) – including several crowns, root canal, a bridge, numerous fillings
for cavities, and an implant.
I also now have glasses to read (although they don’t seem to
work quite right either), computer glasses and the ones that work the best are
those cheapo magnifying spectacles that I now keep 3 pairs of tucked in various
spaces to help me see the teeny tiny print on bottles and packages.
A few
fleeting wishes, made as a pre-teen, have now manifested in ways I never would
have thought back then.
One statement that kept coming up when I had an entire season
marathon watching “Once Upon a Time” was,”All magic comes with a
price.”Apparently, some wishes do too, so be cautious of your wishes because
you will never know how or when or in what form they will come in.
Don’t even get me started wishing for ample cleavage!
