One wish

So there is intelligent life in cyberspace. What a relief.

If you had one wish, to be granted with no consequence or price, what would it be? (And if anyone says 'more wishes'....)

Dying happy, means dying and knowing that I didn't waste my life

...and as the 103rd Miss World wishes once again for World Peace I can only echo her carefully prepared script. While she does not understand the gravity of her words, I cannot think of a single more important thing than the everlasting acceptance of life without judgement or prejudice. No more war, violence or disharmony. Isn't that what everyone wants?

The ability to travel in time as much or as frequently as I want, for as long as I want, and slip into anyone's body or life anywhere in the time continuum without being detected as an imposter, with a photographic memory and no memory loss.

(Can you tell I've played D&D and made wishes before?)

I was at this lecture thing where a man was asked what he wished for his kids. I remember he said, before happiness, love, etc., that he wished for them to be engaged in the world. To be actively participating in it. I thought that was an interesting statement.

Money.

Go ahead, think me materialistic, greedy or shallow. . . it's alright.

I have love. I have health. I have two decent children and a slightly shakey but pretty ok job. . . All I want is money. Enough so that I don't have to actually worry about it. Enough so that I could go and get educated. Enough to take a weekend trip every now and then, and maybe even an actual vacation every now and again. Enough that the dream of owning my very own shiny new Harley could be at least feasable.

So yeah. Money.

hmm.. well one of two things.. (although this may seem contradictory) I would like Limited Omnipotence.. being all powerful would kinda be a drag ( I like some of lifes little suprises) so godlike powers but a 'killswitch' with it ( I wouldn't want to accidently dream the world out of existence).. but on a more realistic note.. As someone stated above, to Die happy knowing my life wasn't wasted (and since that's kind of a catch all... you would get true love happiness health etc. with that wish)
