I happened to read this quote in a fortune cookie- " If your wishes are not extravagant, they will be granted".Come to think of it, what really defines extravagant? Isn't it relative- depending on what station of your life, you start desiring. And here one takes it as given, that we desire all the time. It's as natural to us as we breathe.
If the quote is applied to a new born child, one can draw interesting inferences.
A child, wishes to crawl and when he/she succeeds in that, he/she wants to walk and so the list goes on. As Parents, both Mom n Dad compete with Grand parents to rob the very first word a child speaks. And so the desires come into play.
These desires can appear extravagant to a child, for he/she has to "accomodate" so many hearts with his/her simple spoken word!
I guess the point has been made!
