Such a little question ...but it really got me thinking........ probably Good Health to All (which includes access to clean water/healthcare/food/housing/transport/safety etc etc to all) To stop getting bogged down by the unimportant things in life ...eg housework/exam results/material stuff etc To be able to let dead loved ones go, and not getting upset when I think of them An end to all this Tribalism/empire building/religious wars. Oh and someone to do the decorating and make the tea (sorry if thats a bit pathetic!) Jen x

thats lovely marie, weve talked about buying a big house between us and all living there, me OH the kids, future grandchildren, would love it, but that would be lovely to have a second house and help all the youngsters you could, give them freedom to have fun and not be afraid ever again

Ok there are lots of things that I could wish for like meeting my past rellies again and health and happiness for my family etc but one thing me and my mum once said was that if we had loads of money (we were talking about winning the lottery at the time) then we would buy a great big house and fill it with all those neglected unloved abused children and then fill it with people like us to love and care for them, they would never have to be unhappy or hurt again. I know it sounds a bit over the top but it is something that has always stuck in my mind when anyone asks what would you have if you could? Or thinking about the question again, maybe it would be easier for all the children in the world to live happily and not come to any harm if I could have that then that would be great. Marie: )
