“Be careful what you wish”


This is a very wise proverb, but at the same moment is a very hard one.
Why? Hah! This is the point!
Sometimes you wish for something so strongly and you pray for it and you cry for it and you spend all your energy to succeed it.
But, when the object of your desire comes to your life, you see that you had not think about a detail. A very small, but very important detail.
You wish, for example, for a good job, a great salary, for fame, prestige, power and the list goes on…
And life brings every condition of the list to you. Except of this lorn detail.
Let’s say that in this case is the life of your life. You have the job you wished for, the money, the prestige, everything. But this job is in America and your beloved cannot come with you. And you cannot live without your beloved person!
Ironic eh? You never thought about it? Oh, yes!
It is this small detail that you had never thought to add in your “wants” list. Just a word.
I wish the same thing all my life, but I forgot this small detail.
All my life I wish to find my prince. I made my own list. I want my prince to be well mannered, smart, educated, sexy, la, la, la, la, la, la…
An enormous list, with all my desirable details (as I was considering).
And I found my prince. I found him! He is handsome and sexy and well mannered and educated and… He is blessed by God.
But this small detail destroyed me.
He is soooo young and I am too old. “Too old for rock ’n’ roll, too young to die”.
What shall I do? He deserves the best and I can give him nothing.
Nothing except my love. My love, my affection, my friendship, my care, my interest, my experience…
What shall I do? His heart is made of gold. He is like the water: clear, refreshing, soft, gentle!
I want to give him everything, but I cannot give him nothing.
What shall I do. How shall I handle it.
Why I forgot this small detail? Why always exist a forgotten detail in our lives?
Is this what we call the Murfie law? Is this a kind of reverse of the Universe because it is tired to hear us ask every day?
I don’t know.
I wish I could give myself to my prince, but it is impossible.
But he knows that even under these circumstances he loves me and he will always love me!

Isn’t it GOOD LUCK?

PS. I love you.
