I wish...

I wish a teacher had never yelled at me for something I didn't do. I wish I didn't find it okay to yell at someone even if they did something.

I wish it wasn't several teachers that had yelled and outbursted at a whole group of us students. I wish yelling didn't exist in this world.

I wish I hadn't yelled at my family.

I wish my family didn't fight and yell.

I wish my grandmother didn't use pins to prick my father's lips so that he would never lie to her. I wish she hadn't forced him to lie to other people protect her interests.

I wish my father wasn't torn inside himself about using hitting to discipline us kids, where he didn't think he was a bad father for not having hit us.

I wish my parents hadn't yelled at each other and fought.

I wish there was more than enough money, so we wouldn't fight about money.

I wish I wasn't afraid of having to make the choice of accepting pain, abuse and yelling so that I can make money to  eat.

 I wish no one would have to make this choice of accepting abuse, yelling, shouting, being attacked, because they need to take care of their basic needs.

I wish no one would be afraid of being themselves for fear of being yelled at or screamed at.

I wish no one was ridiculed or ostracized for being who they are.

I wished no one would stop being who they are out of fear of what will happen, of being hurt, yelled at.
