I Wish You the Time

I don’t wish you all sort of gifts. I just wish you what most people don’t have:

I wish you the time to be happy and to laugh and if you use it wisely, you can make something out of it.

I wish you the time for your actions and reflections, time not only for yourself, but also to give away to others.

I wish you the time – not to hustle and run but the time to be content.

I wish you the time – not to simply let it pass.

I wish that you have enough time to be amazed and to trust, and not simply to look at the watch.

I wish you the time to reach for the stars and the time to grow, to mature

I wish you the time to hope and to love. It makes no sense to postpone this time.

I wish you the time to find yourself to see happiness in each day and each hour.

I wish you the time also to forgive.

I wish you the time to live.
