The Wishes of Unity

Wishes are like seagulls. They migrate from the sea-limited islands, leaving them forlorn and forgotten to newer vistas whenever the season comes. Wishes transcend the boundaries set by need and always, need is the one to be left behind. The slow moving tortoise of need didn't win the race here it seems. It has been  left behind  by the gulls, on the island to aimlessly amble up the rocks and search for a rabbit to compete with!

Why do wishes surface in the season of festivals? The truth is, they don't. At least not just then. They never surface on an individual's mind as they are always there like the dormant seeds which by the promise of human company, start growing. 

Wishes are mutual, even if we don't notice. They might seem to be only ours but they do encompass a lot of lives, which in coordination make ours come true. Never feel guilt of being selfish in wishing as you might not have noticed, the wishes interconnect us, make us coordinated towards working for each other. As per the paradigm, by wishing for a bike this christmas, you might be making your friends wish the same, or indirectly making the bike-makers wish for a record sale!

Wishes that seem selfish, if not conceived to harm anyone, only unite us. Unity makes up a festival.
