Wish upon a star

And as I wish upon this star,

Waiting for my fairytale …my dream life…my sense of happiness and fulfillment …

Impatiently waiting…

I find myself wondering what is taking so long.

Perhaps it is because this star I have wished upon is light years away, yet I somehow expect the laws of physics to defy themselves for me.

Why are we told to ‘wish upon a star’?

It gives us something upon which to place our wildest dreams.

Just as the mass, light, and impact of the star are beyond our comprehension…

so is our ultimate potential…

so is our final destination…

so is our dream life.

But our dreams are meant to be our adventure…

composed of small moments meant to be travelled and enjoyed.

After all, a destination is merely a place if we fail to enjoy the ride…

A life of purpose does not mean that purpose has to be found in everything. It merely has to be FOUND…

in the right things…

at the right time…

and in the right order…

And as I wish upon this star,

Waiting for my fairytale …my dream life…my sense of happiness and fulfillment…

I finally begin to see this wish for what it is.

✨ The star’s beautiful, beaming light, can navigate me on my intended life journey…It cannot provide me with what I wish for my journey to be…✨

Some things simply cannot be fully comprehended.

Nor are they meant to be…
