18 Candles, 18 Wishes

by NineteenMinutes   Feb 8, 2011


18 candles, 18 wishes...
1. I wish that I was more confident
2. I wish I had the ability to say no, to defend myself
3. I wish people would take me seriously
4. I wish that I made better decisions
5. I wish that I was a better person
6. I wish that I could be proud of myself
7. I wish that people would stop taking advantage of me or that I'd stop letting them
8. I wish I was more like my sisters:
smart like Rachel,
bubbly like Emma
and funny and blunt like Vicky
9. I wish I'd start taking responsibility for myself for a change
10. I wish I could grow up and be mature
11. I wish I was prettier
12. and thinner
13. I wish I was less spiteful
14. I wish that i could stop hurting the people closest to me
15. I wish I always told the truth
16. or that I never felt the need to lie to be more interesting or to fit in
17. I wish I was happy with who I am
18. I wish that I could stop wishing and start changing to reflect what I want and who I want to be.

18 candles, 18 wishes,
hold your breath and pray,
18 candles, 18 wishes,
they may come true one day.
