Wishcasting Wednesday

Jamie's prompt this week ..

Who do you wish to have tea with?

Two images danced through my mind .

I wish to have tea with Alice of course ... filled with fun and fantasy.

And I wish to have a wedding tea party with my next grand passion.

Imagination becomes reality so swiftly sometimes right out of left field.
Thank you God.

Characters in my life ....also to protect my young adult children from being named ....

My eldest child Miss Spirit ;

Obviously my daughter has a vibrant, assertive personality! Miss Spirit and her hubbie are gorgeous and live less than 3 hours from my new Beach Castle. She is a travel consultant but is now giving her focus to mothering our beautiful Matilda born May 28, 2009, and delightful Harriet, born April 3o, 2011. Her hubbie ...Mr. G. works in the television industry as a film editor.

My older son Le Chef;

Talented Le Chef has a strong personality and works in a restaurant, he is a qualified Chef. He lives up in the mountains with his wife, in a house he purchased with the beautiful Miss K. who is like another daughter to me.

And my younger son Giraffe Boy;

My Giraffe Boy works in IT Support for the Dept. of Education! He's so tall I can't reach him! 6'2" or more ...he shares a mountain house with friends, he's very smart and very funny ... we have a wonderous loving easy relationship.

The Invitation

It doesn't interest me what you do for a living. I want to know what you ache for, and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.

It doesn't interest me how old you are. I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon. I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life's betrayals or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain!I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it or fade it, or fix it.

I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic, to remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn't interest me if the story you are telling me is true. I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself; if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul; if you can be faithlessand therefore trustworthy.

I want to know if you can see beauty even when it's not pretty, every day,and if you can source your own life from its presence.

I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand on the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes!”

It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have. I want to know if you can get up, after the night of grief and despair, weary and bruised to the bone, and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

It doesn't interest me who you know or how you came to be here. I want to know if you will stand in the center of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied. I want to know what sustains you, from the inside, when all else falls away.

I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

"Lord make me a channel of thy peace;that where there is hatred, I may bring love; that where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness ; that where there is discord, I may bring harmony ; that where there is error, I may bring truth; that where there is doubt, I may bring faith; that where there is despair, I may bring hope; that where there are shadows, I may bring light; that where there is sadness, I may bring joy.
