Be careful what you wish for or pray for, because whatever you wish for or pray for, you will have to take care of.

About This Quote

When asked to define the meaning of "wish for," the dictionary defines it as: "to desire strongly and earnestly; desire earnestly and with hope or faith." This is a definition that fits the entire meaning of the original word, wish. However, we often lose this sense of wishing and desire in our modern age. We often pray for things and only understand the wishes we make when we get them. However, we must always remember that what we wish for is what we must take care of.
