Three Wishes -A Writing Challenge
Not for a luxurious life, but for the people, freedom, and security that mean the most to me.
If God or Genie asked me today, “You have three wishes. You can ask for anything. What would you choose?”
I know exactly what I would say.
I wouldn’t ask for a mansion.
I would ask for expensive jewellery, luxury holidays, and a life where I can worry about money.
My three wishes are much more personal.
These wishes come from the things I have lost, the things I have seen and felt, and the things I still quietly hope for.
1. I want my parents back.
This would be my first wish without hesitation.
I want my parents back—not because I am unhappy with my life today, but because I still feel there was so much left to offer them.
I was still young when I lost them.
And sometimes I think about how different life would feel if they were still here.
I want to gift my father the car he once dreamed I would buy after completing my MBA and getting a good job.
