Good morning Wishcasters!
Just a little side note, this is my 200th blog post and I am so excited to share this milestone with you. I never thought I’d have the dedication to post so regularly but I have and it’s been a beautiful experience. Here’s to 200 more! This week’s Wishcasting Wednesday prompt is:
What heights do you wish to reach?
Upon reading it, for a good hour, I had no idea what I wanted to write about. I am not an ambitious person. I’ve tried to be, but it’s just not there and I don’t feel the need to make myself into something that I’m not. I’ve been at my “day job” for almost eight years now and every year my managers ask me to consider getting into management. They’ve pleaded, promised, and pushed and always I just say no. I’m happy doing what I do and doing what I do well. That’s enough for me.
I don’t need to rise above. I need to do what I do and be happy doing it and I am.
Even with Blessing Manifesting, I look to the top of the mountain with no desire to climb it. I’ll happily wander the paths below, sharing with those that want to be shared with. That is where my bliss lies. So I had difficulty answering this so I googled “quotes about height” but I didn’t find anything that inspired me until I saw a link for the song “Defying Gravity” (I love this version best) and my reaction was “I know that song! I love that song.” and I realized that it fit perfectly for this.
The story Wicked is the Wizard of Oz from the Wicked Witch of the West, Elphaba‘s point of view. You discover that she’s not Wicked, her path was just different. She didn’t want to conform to the Wizard’s ideals of government. She wanted to do her own thing. What felt right to her. Popularity didn’t matter to her, she just had to follow her heart.
The heights I wish to reach are of my own making.
While I am not ambitious, I do strive to always do better. My heights and my success are set by me and no one else. So, even though the heights I want to reach may not be the top of a great, mighty, mountain, as long as I follow my heart and Great Spirit, I know that I’ll be exactly where I need to be.
What heights are you wishing to reach?
Woohoo! Congratulations on your 200th post. I love this song, it's so beautiful. As Dominee wishes for herself so I wish for her also x
I feel you on this… at least in the "career" aspect. I too am good at my job but I also am content to stay at that level. I like to fly under the radar. I do better at meeting my own goals rather than ones pre-determined by someone else.
As Dominee wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
Congratulations! I love this post so much :) I feel the same way. I want to do what I do. I think you are at the top of the mountain though, sitting with your guides, elders and goddesses. We'll sit in the circle to listen to their stories and feel blessed to know those who soar high.
Dominee you wish is so beautifuly written and congratulations on your 200.00 posts.
This is wonderful, Dominee! (and I love that song too!) As you wish for yourself, so I wish you as well.
Congratulations on your 200th post!
As Dominee wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
Congratulations on your 200th post Dominee! I absolutely love your wish and the way that you said that '
My heights and my success are set by me and no one else.' It doesn't get any better than that. As you wish for yourself, I wish for you also.
Great wish. As Dominee wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.
Congrats! It takes dedication to consistently blog ;0)
As Dominee wishes for herself, so I wish for her also.

As Dominee wishes for herself, so I wish for her also
Wooohoooo! Happy bicentennial post, Dominee. May you continue to set heights for yourself that are ever higher, but remember to recognise and celebrate each one, knowing just how much you've learned and changed and grown as you've achieved it.
As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you!
I love wicked and this song is one of my favourites for exactly the reasons you mentioned! "and if im flying solo, at least im flying free!" is such a good mantra. Especially to belt out tunelessly at the top of your lungs ;)
Glad to have found your blog via twitter :) always great to find kindred spirit types xx
Hello lovely goddess friend! As you wish for yourself, Dominee, so I wish for you as well.
