My wish is for you to have a life that explodes and sparkles with so much Joy that you laugh-out-loud until your sides hurt and tears of Happiness flow down your cheeks. My wish is for you to feel Good about yourself; that the very Best happens for you; and that you know you are the Creator of your dreams and visions—that you manifest the Greatness and Success in your life. My wish for you is that when inevitable negative events happen around you, that you have the Patience, Courage, Strength, and Grace to face them head on, rise above them, and learn from them in Positive, Healing, and Loving ways. My wish is for you to Accept yourself and Love yourself, flaws and all, and realize that you are filled with the Magic and Power of all Creation.

My wish is for you to sing out loud, no matter who is watching you or around you. My wish is for you to paint your fingernails, toenails, walls, and the world with vibrant colors. My wish for you is to sleep deeply on the ground in the wilderness, and on crumpled, tangled sheets shared with someone Unique, Wonderful, and Kind, and who Loves you deeply with a Heart-centered and Spiritual Connection. My wish is for you to throw all your worries, doubts, fears, and underwear into the wind; to walk barefoot and naked in nature; to eat fresh fruit and vegetables right off the vine, stem, and stalk; to jump up-and-down shouting silly things; to talk with strangers to make new friends; and to stay up all night discussing philosophical meanderings and wanderings with someone with an open mind, heart, and spirit.

My wish is for you to open all your windows on crisp mornings; to let dirty dishes sit; to let unfolded clothes wrinkle; to cancel meetings and forget about errands; to turn off your phones, TVs, video games, and computers; and to eliminate mind-numbing, fear-mongering disinformation and propaganda from your life, and health-harming greedy-corporate chemicals from your body.

My wish for you is to learn all the lessons that come your way, and that you are open to learning them with little to no pain. My wish for you is to be a ‘Thinker’ who constantly searches, learns, and grows from your lessons; refusing to be mentally and emotionally enslaved, apathetic, and stagnant. My wish for you is to boldly and confidently expresses your views and feelings in the face of the obsessive and oppressive indoctrination of sanctimonious religious, governmental, and corporate zealots and extremists—always being Non-judgmental and Respectful of denominational/spiritual, political, and gender differences by not trying to force your ideals and beliefs on any other person, and never causing physical and/or financial harm to anyone. My wish is for you to ignore all the man-made seconds, minutes, and hours that constantly want to control you and steal away irreplaceable moments of Happiness, Bliss, Pleasure, and Ecstasy in your life.

My wish for you is to dress in a way that will create a hardy belly-laugh in those who see you, and for you to dance Freely to music that only you can hear. My wish is for you to read books that expand your Heart, Mind, and Spirit—and your World. My wish is for you to feel the cold rush of a waterfall cascading over your body on a hot summer day, and to feel the warmth of a campfire easing the chill on a winter night. My wish is for you to be an example to children that you may grow older in years but you never have to grow old in your Heart, Mind, and Spirit.

My wish is for you to throw parties and give gifts 'Just Because’; to accept and appreciate all the help and gifts offered and given to you; and to know that you are never truly alone in this world unless you choose to be. My wish for you is that you do everything that you can to make your Goals and Aspirations come true, and to be Thankful for and Celebrate the Journey of your Life. My wish for you is that you or a Loved one do not have to experience a near tragic event or a near-death experience before realizing how Special and Valuable Life is. My wish for you is to know and understand that Loved ones are more Important and Valuable than money and material wealth.

Simply put, my wish is for you to feel Alive, Healthy, Loved, and Bliss-full!

So, as often as possible, use paintbrushes, crayons, and chalk; play musical instruments and playful games; write stories, poems, and songs; take photographs and make videos; feel the sensuality of potters clay on your hands, face, and hair; experience the delight of mud in-between your toes and on your skin; and, freely accept Love, give Love, and make Love—know without a doubt that we are all Wonderful, Creative, Sacred artists
