Day 8 – May 23, 2010 – One Wish

"We can change our lives. We can do, have, and be exactly what we wish." -Tony Robbins

Are dandy lions a weed or a flower? My parents never particularly liked them. We had dandy lions like this one all over the backyard. I was allowed to pick them and blow the seeds all over the place. I’d make wishes, as children often do.

Out at Yeat’s estate, there were tons of dandy lions. As I strayed away from the group, I found myself in a field filled with them. On a whim, I picked one and decided to make a wish. I won’t tell what the wish was. I sincerely hope it comes true some day. What better place to make a wish, I thought: beside an old castle that used to belong to a famous writer in the middle of Ireland. Hopefully, a little luck will accompany that wish. Someday, we’ll see!
