300 wishes
today i feel.. weird.
i don't feel too depressed or anxious, but i don't feel good either.
i'm still worried about a million things but they're not eating away at me.
anyways, while digging through some pictures on my phone, i found a picture that i saved before of an excerpt from a korean book.
i don't know the title of this book, but the excerpt references a collection of essays written by a different korean author.
in one of his essays he wrote, "in life, people make 200 wishes. but actually. they say that the number of wishes that come true is 300. because there are wishes that someone makes for me."
i was really touched when i first read this, and i thought about how even though most of the time i think the world sucks, there are some really beautiful things about the world sometimes.
have you ever wished something for someone? i know i have.
and you may not know it, but i'm sure someone has wished something for you as well.
lately i've been experiencing how precious it is for someone to wish you well, or to wish you happiness.
not that i didn't think it was precious before, but i've been giving it more thought lately.
even though it just may be out of courtesy, hearing someone say that they're rooting for me or that they hope things go well for me means a lot.
and for me, having people to root for also means a lot.
if you feel like no one has wished anything for you, then today i wish for you all good things.
