Interesting distinction from telepathy, RoyHobbs. I like it.

I know that it doesn't sound that exciting, but I really DO want to be helpful, useful and good. It would be nice if it came easily instead of having to work at it, though.

But it is work worth doing. I'll keep trying.

I'd rather be helpful, useful and good than be rich or famous or have stuff. Health would be nice, for me and my family. But I'm sticking with helpful, useful and good.

So there.

I would make a huge list of all the material posessions I want, all the abilities I want, all the insights and powers I want, and then I would say:

I wish for everything on this list.

Then, I would make a list of all the heartaches and troubles and flaws and bad habit I want rid of and say:

I wish for the cessadtion of everything on this list.

For the third wish, I would wish for a strudel. I like strudel.

1: The ability to communicate exactly what I wanted and be met with perfect understanding.

2: The answer to whatever question I could think of. Yeah, an omniscient answer machine.

3: The ability to read minds
