I wish, I want

I was ym-chatting with my friend from the States. He's the guy who always gave me pep talks on life. Its really refreshing to sometimes talk and listen to a very mature person, who has a very positive outlook in life.

Anyway, in that particular conversation, I noticed that he used the phrase "I wish" a lot. For example, he would say, I wish I was thinner. So, I told him my observation - that he loves to say I wish. I told him -- Me naman, being the materialistic self, I love saying "I want."

His reply sort of surprised me. They're just simple words actually, but with deep meaning. The kind that will make you nod and say to yourself "Now, why didn't I think of that..."

So here goes...

You wish
Then want
Then have
Then give
Then enjoy
Then smile..

Now, why didn't I think of that?
