When I read the word wishlist on so many blogs and websites, I usually think Amazon and online shopping and online registries. I have to be honest and admit that I used to think wishlists were a bad idea; in a moment I shunned it as too materialistic.
But now that I’m actually writing a blog that evolves around a wish, I realize it’s not really materialistic to want something that can be attained through something material.
The idea of this blog came from wishlists: I’ve seen many people list down and blog (and then send the link to ask their friends, hahahaha) for what they want for Christmas, birthday, or other holidays that involve gifts.
The thought came to me: if I were to make a wishlist of my own, what would I want?
The usual request for a new gadget came to mind (new phone/laptop/camera) but the desire for it wasn’t actually as big as the first wish I want to be fulfilled: for me and DF to be together.
Mind you, the part of wanting to be with my significant other can be attained with something material (i.e. a plane ticket), but the wish is something truly more than just an international flight: a wish to be with the person I love the most.
So yes, I am writing a wishlist blog with only one wish in it: to be with him. He found me, I found him, and now we’re trying to find a way to be with each other.
