Do you make wishes on some special day?

Since I was quite young, I am used to making three wishes on my birthday every year. Though some of my wishes didn't come true, I still keep the habit till today. Some of my friends said that it is a bit childish, but I don't care. Making wishes on my birthday can bring me confidence and courage to realize them in the future. What about you? Do you make wishes on your birthday or some other special days? Have your wishes been realized? Share...

I only make wishes on my birthday if I have a cake with candles. That doesnt happen very often anymore! I dont think there is anything wrong with making wishes. It means you know what you want. It will help you get there. Like you said, it will bring confidence and courage. You will never make your wishes come true if you dont know what they are! I have had some of my wishes come true. Many times it required a lot of hard work. Other ones just required time. It is always a good feeling to know you got something that you really wanted! Keep on wishing!

I make one wish on my birthday and on every New Year, my brother and I would stuff 12 grapes in our mouth and then before chewing/eating them we will make three wishes and jump while making those wishes. It's really funny and we don't jump quite so high bec. we don't want to choke on our grapes :))

I think at least one of them came true.

I'm now faraway the age of believing in wishes and miracles. I have most of what I want now and I'm not too greedy to please myself. I do everything with my best sothat I won't have to regret later. Sometime I see someone less happy than me and I make a so-called with for him/her, but it's not on a special day.
