My wishes and prayers:
1. That people of different religions would stop judging each other, and instead respect each other and treat each other with love and compassion, and learn to live side by side, in peace.
2. That people could look into other people's eyes, and see themselves reflected there, and understand we are all part of the web of life. We are all precious.
3. That all countries would seek to be gentle to the planet that sustains us, to learn to respect not only human life but all the life forms on our planet.
4. That all countries seek peace with one another, not competition, but cooperation.
5. That there will be no more war. All the wasted lives, resources, money would be put to good use to provide education, health care, end poverty and help sustain our home, the Earth.
6. That more people will get out of their cars and use public transit (or organize for better transit in their cities), ride their bicycles and walk. Drive their cars less, turn down their thermostats and use less electricity and heat or A/C. Find additional ways to stay warm or cool. Go solar! :P
7. That people will realize only they can make their neighborhoods friendly and safe. Meet and get to know the neighbors. Work together to form tight knit neighborhoods and communities where people look out for one another.
8. To realize ONE person CAN make a difference. Just take that first step forward. Look ahead positively, not at what others are or are not doing. Be as self-responsible as possible.
I'll add more as I think of them. :P
Goddess and God, bless us all, protect us, grant us good health, love, laughter, joy, prosperity in our lives in the year to come! Blessed Be!

I have started on a few of my listed wishes. I have a sturdy bicycle now with saddle bags. I ride my bicycle instead of driving my car for errands around town, to my t'at chi chih class, whenever I don't need the car for longer distances or bulky or heavy things. DH and I are researching adding solar panels to our home so we can at least partially get off the "grid." I hope to become more active with social justice projects through my UU church, as well. Write my gov't reps more often, become more aware, etc.
I agree with you -- the longer I live, the more there is to learn and understand. The more I realize how much I don't yet know or understand. I'm also accepting of that. Personal growth is a process. Evolving as spirit is a process, being open to new insights and awakening to all that there is to learn and understand. :P
