Stories Collected While Living in France
A magic lantern of sort
from the 1700s
Just that is magical, if not amazing.
What do you wish for, desire for, and long for? Does it matter?
Is letting the Genie out like letting Pandora out?
Is it true to be careful what you wish for?
Am I overthinking this morning?
Or is the brocante taunting me with all its good stuff?
How fitting for me the magic Jeanne lantern
May everyone’s wishes come true for them always
Love Jeanne
i love posts like this. So much packed into a small space-a lot to ponder-and i am in a pondering mood!
That something so fragile and lovely can survive from the 1700’s is amazing–magical ..
I no longer yearn for things. I am, in fact, trying to divest myself of objects.
I wish for longevity and good health for me and my family and friends.
I long for peace and better health for our planet. As I age, I find my needs and wants have changed considerably.
It is the people in my life that bring me joy. I’ve been blessed.
Reading your words and seeing that magic lantern has me wondering and dreaming of wishes to come.
For me one wish is to travel the world, see peoples shining faces, hug more, shed a few tears, and to be treated with kindness.
