To Wish Impossible Things: The Opposite of Loneliness
http://to-wish-impossible-things.blogspot.com/2010/02/opposite-of-loneliness.html
Thursday, February 18, 2010. The Opposite of Loneliness. The excerpt above is from the most recent chapter I finished, which is entitled "Alone." There was another paragraph before it that I did not quote - one in which he discussed being in that kind of all-encompassing love that everyone has experienced. The kind which is so wonderful because you realize that you forget your own problems and find someone else more important than you. And that can't be the case. No, seriously, I understand about needing...

To Wish Impossible Things: June 2009
http://to-wish-impossible-things.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Saturday, June 20, 2009. For most of my younger years, dad was home with us in the mornings to send us off to school. My brother and I were two of the least alert people before school and dad would often catch us staring blankly out the window while our waffles got cold. He would come in the kitchen, clap his hands and sing, "Pick up the fork and put it in your mouth! Mom wasn't onboard with that solution, though. Happy Father's Day, daddy. I love you. Links to this post. Thursday, June 18, 2009. Never a...

To Wish Impossible Things: The Missing Piece of Fulfillment
http://to-wish-impossible-things.blogspot.com/2010/01/missing-piece-of-fulfillment.html
Saturday, January 30, 2010. The Missing Piece of Fulfillment. I remember when I was turning 30, that the consolation prize was "feeling secure in your skin." Countless people encouraged me to embrace this new decade, because unlike my 20s, I would feel secure with who and where I was in my life. But you realize that your career isn't everything. When I tell people that I work for a non-profit organization, their first reaction is often to ask, "Why? So what gives you the answers? What makes you feel like...

To Wish Impossible Things: Auld Lang Syne
http://to-wish-impossible-things.blogspot.com/2009/12/auld-lang-syne.html
Thursday, December 31, 2009. The first question of superstitions is this: does that one about New Year's Eve apply to the whole day or just the romantic-at midnight part of it? In other words, is my 2010 already doomed or is there still time to salvage it? I am going to learn to take things as they come and try not to let details overwhelm me or stress me out. I am going to focus on what is good and positive in my life, rather than thinking about what is missing or what would theoretically make it better.

To Wish Impossible Things: May 2009
http://to-wish-impossible-things.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 25, 2009. Just Say No to Tourists. You don't have to go home but you can't stay here.". I have a love-hate relationship with Long Beach, where I live, especially at this time of year. What ruins my town are the people who don't legitimately live here. To the right of me, there are kids from the City who are proclaiming loudly, "Wow, you know you're not in the City when you can stretch your arms out and not touch both sides of the aisle in the store! Yes Waldbaums is like Disney World, isn't it.
