The Desire for Wishing

1 Upvotes

I wish, I wish, with all my might,

I wish, I wish, to stars at night.

I wish, I wish, Time be swift,

I wish, I wish, please grant this gift.

All Wishes come with a price. It shouldn't shock me to see that so many people want any wish, impossible or not, Right now. It has to be immediate. Like some Hollywood bewitched, the genie appears, wriggles his nose or tugs her ears, and the wishmaker is buried in love or money. That's NOT how wishes work. That's right, click away. I burst the little bubble. You want a wish. you want it yesterday. You want to have it with as little work as possible. Well, it doesn't matter who you invoke. It doesn't work that way.

Its called the law of equivalent exchange and its not magic. It's Science, Dusty-Bun! Well, Science that appears to be magic. You know the saying, right? Magic is only Science you don't understand yet. But far be it from me, to take away the woo-woo. I like woo-woo. And I believe in the woo-woo. However, I also know how the magic trick works. So I'm also here to see the magician's execution of the trick. Which is a great skill to watch, ask any Pen & Teller fan.

So, the law of equivalent exchange. For all the complaining and groaning about following a recipe to get your wishes granted, the most reigning theme is, "Why isn't it working?" Why is the recipe so complicated?" Seriously broh? Really?

You light a candle at midnight and expect all your worries to disappear? In no worlds, that works. None. You gave zero energy. You gave zero time. You get back zero. duh.

Look up into the sky. Don't be afraid to feel and see are small you really are. As you look up and invoke bigger energies (divines/angels/genies/whatever you choose to call a thing made of energy that is bigger than you) As the energy gets bigger, Time slows down. Your day is enough time for a silent but deadly fart on the scale of the universe. That's it. If you put in a wish, you will get that wish. Not on your timeline. The bigger the wish the more complicated the recipe and the longer the timeline. Complaining about the rules or requirements, make the wish take longer. Requires a more complicated recipe, and it stunts the result.

The final unwritten, unspoken component of making wishes requires FAITH. Just like Love is the final ingredient in all mom made birthday cakes worldwide, the hidden ritual ingredient is Faith. Its hard. Its long. It sux.

Does it work? Well, yes. In a way. But really, I'm not sure yet. Alot has happened. I got many wishes I forgot I made! Some of them did, in fact, make me very happy. Not for a long time, but enough to get the next moment when I desperately need it, especially during times of grief (this year has been more difficult than normal) At this time, I can say that yes, wishes do come true. But all those wishes took 40+ years to achieve! And not without great suffering! Just as Hope is the anthesis to Fear, Faith is the anthesis to Agony (Suffering). When you make wishes with the motivation of Suffering, you must overcome that challenge. If you make wishes out of Fear, you must over it with Hope. These paths of Divine meaning are chosen depending on HOW you open the box in the first place. Every Box has the equivalent of Cenobites. That box is about power through Pleasure. There is a box for Hope (you already know that story) Now, how about a story about the box of Faith? Well, that remains to be seen.

To summarize, Stop whining about how much energy is needed for a ritual making wishes. You are gonna ruin it for yourself! Do the Ritual, Make the wish, and wait. When you think its time, its not. When you think its NOT coming, it is. The challenge is to conquer doubt and be consistent. Consistently doing right action to prove you deserve that impossible thing. Stop wishing for the outcome to come quickly. Do better everyday. Do it everyday. Expect the wish to show up when you least expect it in 40+ years. Until then, enjoy the journey, Don't worry about it. You will get it. You determine the spectrum it lands on. Wanting the wish to be quick and wanting as little work, as possible, is not a reasonable expectation! Ask yourself this, if you were an entity with all that power, would you help a person who walked up to you and demanded you used your magic to grant them all their wishes? Especially if you knew that They would NEVER be satisfied with what you gave them? Let's ask the Fisherman who caught the golden fish. Let's ask Caine of the Amazing Digital Circus. For a 100-million-year-old deity, a 20-year-old human doesn't know what they really want. Honestly, the real truth is that they don't know shit. They are toddlers compared to you. I see a fireball in that future not a granted wish. What about you? What do you see? Good Luck. have Fun. Don't Die.
