Dear Santa,
At the dawn of a new year, I wish for the earth health and longevity, and for us peace and prosperity.
I wish for thicker polar ice caps and a denser ozone layer. I wish for expanding rain forests, and growing oceanic faunas.
I wish an end for poverty and disease, and a renaissance for humanity. I wish for a year free of revolutions — everyone embracing thepromises of evolution.
I wish for an end to violence — of any shape and form –under any disguise.
I wish for dialogue and trade among nations, not wars of aggression. I wish for a benign WTO and an omnipresent IAEA.
I wish the demise of both Neo-conservatism and militant Jihadism. I pray for a world without occupation and an end to suicide bombing.
I wish for a world free of predator drones and without improvised explosive devices.
I wish for what Dr. King dreamed of and John Lennon imagined.
Lastly, I wish for a less imperial America, and a more secular Iran.
Love,
Well Wisher
