Wishful thinking

Why waste the time of day in wishful thinking? Why spin cobwebs in the air? Why wish upon a star, when no one hears? Many years I have spent in wishful thinking. Day dreaming most of my life away. Wasting away the years, Ignoring all my fears. Living in a world of make believe, wishing for a life which will never be. Wanting to walk in some body's else's shoes. What did I have to lose? Wanting to change places with one of the rich and famous. Wishing I could be rich, for most of my life. Ignoring my very best friend Jesus Christ. Why did I think I could cope, living under a microscope? The way the rich and infamous do! When I no longer envyed their life styles, I still desired their money! It is not the least bit funny. Yet I would have Jesus Christ in my life, than diamond rings. I would rather have a poetic song singing in my heart. From the very start than all the gold and silver of this wordly life! Love in Christ Jesus! Roxanne Lea Dubarry aka Roxy54/ October Country June 22, 2016

There is too much wishing for the impossible. Not enough doing!

It was very true that I used to wish for the moon only to come up empty handed! You are right of course of my being guilty of wishing my life away. Instead of wishing I am now believing and I am doing on Pondrin and I appreciate all comments that are constructive especially.
