Recently my young kids were asking something we've probably all joked about, and it was along the lines of "What would you wish for if a genie could grant you one wish?" The conversation had me thinking that, joking aside, I would wish for things to feel easier.

This short episode is more of my reasoning behind that realization, to give perspective, and to acknowledge that this is part of the process towards growth, love, and living a life that is meaningful and good. Plus, I answer what I would wish for if that genie did magically appear to me.
