Ever wonder what you would do if you had one wish?
I wish that I was Santa.
The real Santa. Not the one that everyone has been made to believe in.
Perhaps, I'm confusing Santa with God, I'm not sure.
One's not real and the other one is supposed to be.
They both are "watching" over us, making sure, of whether
we are naughty or nice, and they both apparently, have magical powers.
One gives people hope and presents all over the world in one night
and the other gives hope and is known to be able to performs miracles.
As I see it, either way, one or the other, believe or not believe,
neither one is doing a very good job fulfilling people's wishes.
I'd like to have that job for just one week.

With magical powers or being able to perform miracles, I'd change the world.
I'd start it all over.

First, I'd make us all the same, except for our personalities.
Everyone in every Country around the world would own a nice house
complete with all the furnishing, especially heat and electricity.
Everyone would have an electric vehicle,
and a garden to eat from and work in.

No one would need medical coverage, because I'd strip everyone
of their diseases (mentally, physically and emotionally)
Insurance would be free to all, as well as an education.
Everyone would have plenty of food, and the necessities
that would get them through each day.

I'd make it so that both females and males could not have children,
unless they passed a test and had an operation. Marriage, parenthood,
being a boss, and driving a vehicle would require renewals every 3 years.

There would be no need for soldiers, because peace is really the way to go.

No more guns, drugs, cigarettes, booze, cell phones, televisions,
I-pods, tabs or electronic games.
This would force people to really find something to do with their time and energy.

THERE WOULD BE NO MONEY IN THE WORLD.....

Payment for working hard, being good, helping others and living life
the way we are supposed to, would be paid to us in HOURS.
At midnight every night, if we've earned it, we would receive
another 24 hours (1 day). If we did not earn it and don't deserve
to be paid, we simply, just wouldn't wake up the next day.
Life would truly become "one day at a time".
The more effort you deliver on a daily basis, the longer you get to stay.

I'd allow everyone to think with both sides of their brains
and I'd make everyone's heart just a tad bit bigger and stronger.
I'd bring back all the deceased people and give them a second
chance at this new life.



The world has gotten out of control.
Life and living is no longer the priority for people.
The world has been taken over by greed, incompetence, manipulation,
hatred, ignorance, disease, lying, cheating, disbelief, gluttony, electronic babysitters, pollution, over population, wide spread under nourishment and starvation, drugs, bad habits, mistrust, global warming and over all chaos.

Apparently, we can't and don't want to fix this on our own.
We need a miracle of some kind or something extremely
magical to happen in order to fix things.

I know that I won't get my Christmas wish this year,
but as I speak and we continue on this journey of self destruction,
completely oblivious to the darkness around us,
I'm sure that, something, or someone, somewhere at sometime,
will put an abrupt end to all this craziness. I'm sure of it.



Have a Merry Christmas Everyone.

Let's all try to make an intelligent and worth while
New Years resolution this year and stick to it.
