Dear Optimists,
11:11 is always the right time to make a wish. In Denmark we also have 22:22*, plus we’ve squeeshed in the 00:00 also. That’s a lot of wishing in one day.
Thing is, that I’ve been wishing and wishing for years for a couple of dinosaurs, plenty of unicorns, a puppy, a castle in England, an iPhone 4, the latest MacBook, and world peace, of course. All things that I’ve been waiting for for a long time.
But I’m optimistic. I’m gonna get all of this one day. Soon, right 11:11?
And by the way, I don’t accept coupons.
Love,
Nadia.
*10:22 pm.
I laughed really loud with this post! We also have 22:22 here in Brazil, but never thought to use that hour to make wishes… maybe that’s why I still haven’t found my prince charming!
love this blog!
Cheers! And yes, I believe that’s why *looks for dinosaur* Jebus, I lost him again…
LOL! I guess it’s all depends upon how patient and optimistic you are..
I believe that the more you wait, the more you get.. Or as we say in Egypt, “Patience is the key to joy”! 😀
Patience is definitely the key to joy, but sometimes you need to take matter into own hands and make things happen. I just don’t know how to make a unicorn happen…
Hahaha! Yeah you’re right..
Waiting isn’t enough on it’s own, of course, sometimes we need to “take matter into own hands and make things happen”, however, some-other-times, we don’t immediately get what we want, so we wait…
And as for the unicorn thing, sometimes dreaming is all what you’ve got.. 🙂
I’ve got a unicorn. I’ll let you borrow it sometime…
Aww, cheers! Now you’ve got me waiting…
I would love a dinosaur or two!
I’ll let you know when I get mine, maybe I’ll share with you!
My three-year-old daughter desperately wants a purple, sparkly unicorn for her birthday. Maybe I should fill her in on the wonders of 11:11; then the faeries can be in charge of getting one for her. And it would totally be worth switching to the 24-hour clock just to get in a few more wishings per day.
You should! We need more people in this 11:11 movement to make our wishes happen. Please do enlighten her about the wonders of fairytales.
Not that this is a fairytale – it’s real life.
I would like a dinosaur made of Legos! Oh wait I could make one…
If you make one, you’ll have to send it to me. Better make two!
My birthday is 11/11…and this year it will be 11/11/11. That’s got to be a sign of something good, I think 🙂
I’ve been wishing for a helicopter for years. Is that so much to ask? 😐
Nope. It really isn’t. I’m gonna wish for one for you when the clock turns to 11:11.
