Imagine that your own personal genie popped right in front of you and granted you three wishes, what would the wishes be? Once you have chosen the wishes, then answer - are they attainable in real life and what can I personally do to make them happen?

1.I wish I can control the Universe and all that's in it. 2. I wish that I came up with the cure for all diseases. 3. I wish to be a billionaire so that I can help everyone on the planet. Would they be attainable in real life..maybe not..it's all in my head. Can you make that happen? It would be nice.

My number one wish would be to meet a man I could fall in love with, and who would love me. My second wish would be that my daughter wins a scholarship to go to University. My third wish would be that I could get a good permanent job, preferably in the finance industry.

Those are all good wishes. They seem very do-able.. I hope they happen for you. I like your number one... that would be one of my top ones too, if I hadn't given up on that sort of thing..

Looks like I could respond mostly like I did to the last post - have a look-see at it! I don't know about your painful experience, but I do know - as I have had several, that time does help ease the pain! Good luck!

I would make one wish to win the lottery,so I can take care of a lot of my financial needs for God(my church),myself,family members,friends and the community. My second wish would be for peace on earth and that will come from everyone letting Christ into their hearts and lives. I won't need the third one.

Wow, Jazzy! Nice wishes! And for the second part of my question.... if there's anything that you can do to help make those things happen, I'll bet there's at least one thing in each category that you can do to move those items towards success! The number three thing - your boyfriend's mom's back, you can just help her as much as possible so she doesn't stress her back while it heals.

This is really a very interesting discussion Kizzy . If I had a genie at this very moment I would ask for wisdom so that I would know what the right things to do are, strength so that I would be able to do the things I knew were right and the ability to keep everything in my life balanced so that I could always live right. Keep making great discussions like these Kizzy.

Great wishes and all three can be acted on right away! I'm sure that if you put those three down on paper, you could write several things under each topic that you could do to help achieve those goals! I wanted to lose weight, as I had quit smoking 1 1/2 years ago and put on quite a bit of weight. As I have little will-power when it comes to going out to eat, I started with one rule, and that was to take all sugar out of my beverages, and do you know what? With just that one change, I have already dropped two sizes and now fear having to buy new clothes! All it takes is one action in each category to bring you closer to that wish! Thanks for a good answer!

I think that my three wishes would be good health, peace on earth, and enough money to set up free health clinics for those who don't have health insurance or medicaid. I think the only attainable if we all work together to make improvements. To make it happen, I would improve my personal eating style and lifestyle in general to improve my health and as for the other two, I would try to set up a group that would work on making those happen. But it would take everyone working together for those two. Thanks for bringing this up!

As I've been out of work through redundancy for a year now, and it's a struggle, my first wish would be to have enough money so that I can pay off my overdraft and set up my own business. My second wish would be to purchase my own house. I have no financial security as I have been made redundant 4 times in total and spent all my savings so if my circumstances were to change I would be homeless. My third wish would be to go on a fantastic holiday of a lifetime with my boyfriend so that I can relax and just forget all my worries connected to being unemployed and have an overdraft.

If I had a genie in a bottle, I'd make these wishes: To undo every bad thing that ever happened between loved ones. I would love to be able to go back to past arguments and make them where they didn't ever happen. To go back to my father's father and make him a nice person instead of a mean one. If I could do this, my father would have had a better life and he would have been loved. In turn he would have been able to be a more sensitive father. To wipe out poverty If a wish could wipe out poverty of everyone I know and everyone else in the world, I would wish it. It would make me happy to know that a wish could make the lives of other people much better.
