I had a very nice weekend celebrating my birthday. The best part was spending time with friends. Seeing sites and enjoying exquisite food was icing on the cake.
One in the company asked what my birthday wish was.
I had to think about it for a moment.

It wasn’t that I didn’t have any wishes, but a “birthday wish”?
Hmmm, if I had to pick one…, it would be:
People, in spite of the harshness, cruelty, crap, and evil in life, see and experience that hope and love still exist, in a real and tangible way.
That, my friends, is my wish.
