I’m not a Miss America Candidate. #letsblogoff

If money were no object, what would be the perfect gift? Whether it’s for yourself or for somebody else, what thing would you give that you won’t or can’t give now?

But if I had a swooshy wand…

The ultimate gift is one I wouldn’t give, but I would take.  & I’d take it from all of humanity on this planet.  It would return all of us to our kidlike view of the world & other people as fresh slates & with no judgement. What’s the thing I would take? Prejudice.

If we didn’t make assumptions about things & people before we actually looked & listened to them, we’d be more open minded to working together. We’d get more done, because we’d be focused on the task at hand, not whether we like who we’re working with.

And there wouldn’t be as much greed, from people making assumptions about what money can do for them.

Or

I’d fix the economy.  And have some pumpkin pie.  And a bonfire.  And make every corporation that produces anything make it in a closed loop process where there is no waste so we can save this poor planet.

  1. The other thing you might want to add to your wish list is an actual working HEART for CEOs so they would stop shipping jobs overseas just to make a few more bucks.

  2. Agree completely, Becky!

  3. I would reduce the population back to a sustainable number. And somehow make those that were left realize that more stuff is not the key to happiness.

    How’s that for a Christmas downer?

  4. JeffS I completely agree. It’s the 8,000lb gorilla no one wants to address.

    Happy Holidays!
