.:: If You Had Just One Wish ::.

Mood: Still tired from the extra long
bus ride home yesterday,
but that's nothing a little time at home can't change. :D
Feeling very much in the InuYasha mood right now,
so if you don't watch InuYasha,
you probably might not get some of the things I'm writing here.


Was listening to Tackey & Tsubasa's
Sotsugyou; Sayonara Wa Ashita No Tame
which translates to
Graduation; Goodbye for the sake of tomorrow
and couldn't stop imagining the scene
where Kikyo fell off that cliff into the miasma
and the look on InuYasha's dace when he couldn't save her.
(yes this song was the background music for
that particular scene)
The first line of the song really stuck in my head
and it got me thinking.

"もしも一つだけ, たった一つだけ 
かなえられるなら何を祈るかな?"
"If you had just one wish,
and only just one wish that could come true,
what would you wish for?"

A week ago, (and most times, actually)
I would wish for more time.
I guess it's pretty normal to wish for that
when you're cramming for mocks and the clock's
just ticking away and you try and make every
minute worth it, but something just gets in the way
and you wish you've got more time.

And now that it's the holidays, some part
of me is still wishing for the same,
that I'd have more time before AS comes.
But then again, there was a point in time
that I did have nothing but time (lols no pun intended)
and I really can't say that it was spent productively.
In fact, having lots of time with little to do, is just boring.
It's probably the fact that the time we have is limited that 
makes things special.
It's knowing that we could never turn back the
hands of time, that makes us
cherish the moment and treasure it forever.

And once wishing for more time is out of the picture,
I don't think there's possibly anything else I would wish for.
Yes there could be tons of things that I could want,
but when I think about it deeply,
none of those small little wants really matter,
because I have everything  that's important to me
right here.

So little genie, if I do get the privilege of making that one wish,
I'd wish for the good health of everyone around me,
so that things would be as they are right now. =)
Guess this post is more of a reminder to myself
(knowing how forgetful I am nowadays)
that what's truly important has always been
right here in front of me after all.
Just like how InuYasha has Kagome. :)

Even if my Shikon No Tama is incomplete at the moment,
and there are still thousands of shards out there,
I'll find them slowly, step-by-step, though I know,
that when its finally complete, 
I probably won't need it to make anymore wishes.
