A few years ago I felt kinda lame whenever I had to “make a wish” blowing out birthday candles or whatnot and the only thing I could think of under pressure was “world peace”.

Since then, I’ve kept a wish ready to blurt out if I ever see a falling star or toss a coin into a fountain etc

For me, it’s sending my mind, with all my current knowledge and experience, back in time into my body at the moment I graduated high school, so I could re-live my life with more confidence, less anxiety and get straight into doing the cool bits of my life much earlier.

What would be your “back pocket wish”?

    I’ve always felt that unselfish wishes are more likely to get a pass from the monkey’s paw.

      I’m writing that into my head cannon. The monkey is cursed to punish greed, but it’s benevolence is abundant!
