As the end of 2025 is coming near, I'd like to voice some of the things I wish for this world and humanity...

I wish that there will be less wars and less human suffering. I wish that more people will be able to find happiness and joy in life. I wish life will be more bearable for all those who are struggling. I wish more people, individuals and nations, will have the strength in them to put hatred and hostilities aside and choose peace and co-existence instead.

I wish there will be less division and strife between people, and that the world will be able to reach stability. I wish more people will be able to endure the loneliness epidemic happening around the world and not give up. I wish prosperity to the poor, contentment to the rich, housing for the homeless and food for the hungry.

I wish it will be easier for all those who are struggling. I wish safety for all those who choose to travel the world in these difficult times. I wish the ambitious will would manage to get what they want out of life, and I wish the depressed would be able to solve their own depression like I did. I wish more people will be able to find love, whether with another person or within themselves.

I wish that all those struggling to find work, who need it, will manage to find a position that will satisfy their wants and needs. I wish broken families will manage to either re-unite again or form new families that will be more suitable for their members. I wish more people will be able to be content with their situation in life. I wish justice for the oppressed and medicine for the ill. I wish more people will be able to succeed in whatever they set their eyes on. I wish there will be less exploitation and more love. I wish for harmony in war torn countries, and for the continuation of peace in countries that managed to find stability.

I wish there will be more accessibility to the disabled, and more acceptance towards those who are different. I wish that the misfits of this world would be able to find their place in the world and be content with it. I wish both the virtual and the physical world to be less toxic, less hateful and less violent. I wish people will be safe and will manage to successfully endure whatever life throws at them.

I wish there will be less heartbreaks in this cruel world, and that people in relationships will manage to live happy lives together. I wish the divorced would manage to still see their children. I wish for less abuse in the world and less trauma. I wish solace to the mournful and strength to the weak. I wish this world would be able to accept honesty with less rejection, and toughness to the people willing to hear the truth.

I wish the greedy would be able to appreciate the world beyond the quest for more money. I wish the lustful would manage to satisfy their desires without inflicting suffering. I wish for a world where people would manage to be themselves without the fear of judgement or exclusion. I wish businesses to thrive, and for things to be able to get less expensive. I wish people will get to do whatever they want without hurting others in the process. I wish less people will seek revenge against those who have wronged them, and those who do, tunnel their ambition towards building a good life.

I wish for less people to seek their own early demise, and instead find hope in being alive. I wish for people struggling with physical or mental health issues to find good health. I wish both children and adults would manage to smile and laugh more often. I wish for those who are in toxic relationships to find the strength within themselves to break free and find better alternatives. I wish for less people to be miserable, and more people to find what makes them happy in life.

I wish for extroverts to find the company that makes them happy, and for the introverted to be able to make the most out of their solitude. I wish writers and artists to be able to craft their work without fear, and to make the best out of their creative expressions.

I wish for more good news and less bad news. I wish for more people to be able to cooperate with each other instead of quickly be at each other's throats. I wish for the education system to be able to prepare people to the world of adults instead of producing obedient "drones". I wish for the prideful not be blinded by their egos, and for the modest to be able to appreciate what they've done thus far in life.

I wish for less disasters to be done, whether natural or human made. I wish people would be able to get their rights fairly like those who already have them. I wish for the law to be fair and just, for streets and cities to be safe, and for crime to be reduced. I wish for less corruption and for more justice and equity.

I wish people would continue to be able to enjoy the written word, and for less brains to get rotten. I wish humans will still be able to enjoy writing despite the age of AI slop. I wish for more original content to continue to be made, and for hidden gems to continue to be preserved. I wish for leaders and managers to be strong enough to endure any challenge that stands in their way. I wish for more goodness and less evil in humanity.

I wish for humans would be able to live long and healthy. I wish for those who feel guilty or ashamed of themselves to be able to find redemption and be able to accept themselves for what they are, and also to have faith in themselves. I wish for those who have done wrong to be able to seek forgiveness and build better lives.

I wish for those who are addicted to be able to achieve sobriety. I wish for those with money problems to be able to solve them eventually. I wish for any whose addiction is crippling, to be able to find rehabilitation. I wish more children to be able to be raised in happy, caring environments and have happy childhoods as well as adulthoods later on.

I wish for the lonely to either find company that suits them or be able to overcome their own loneliness by their own power. I wish for hard working people to be able to reach the retirement they want to reach after years of labour. I wish for those who are already retired to find meaningful activities that bring them satisfaction, and to not fear the inevitability of death.

There is much left to do in this hard, corrupt and unjust world to rectify it. I hope my wishes will turn true at least for some people.

Thanks for reading.
