Well Wishes


A little outside of the small house near Ephesus, where it is believed that Virgin Mary spent her last days, is a wall where people write their wishes on a small piece of paper or whatever they can get their hands on and stick them to it. There's plenty of them; thousands, maybe. It's a lot like the love letters left on the walls of Juliet's House in Verona, Italy, and full of wishes like the famous love locks in Paris' Pont des Arts. But since these wishes were left for the Mother Mary, it's more of a prayer than the belief of a myth or an obsession towards a Shakespearean tragedy.

Acceptance. 
What a powerful word for a wish.
