Wishes

Sometimes it is actually a blessing not to get what we wish for.

As an adult, I kind of wish there had been a typo on my birth certificate so that my name was "Michevelle." That said, it probably would have given me interesting stories to tell based on childhood incidents sprinkled like devastating sprinkles throughout my childhood. And now, I would be able to write about those stories with the brilliance of a good writer with a devastating past. It would most likely be brilliantly brilliant. 

Unfortunately, now I'm just brilliantly brilliant without a cooler first name.
