My own input for the last 5:
97. Wish people wouldn't put someone down just because the may have a disability/be in a wheelchair. We're people too. Just look past the outside to see what we're really like inside.
98. Wish kids these days would show respect to their parents/adults like we did when we were kids.
99. I hate having to depend on others to help me with every day things in life that my disability keeps me from doing on my own.
100. Wish one day that this world will be a place where everyone can just get along.
101. Wish I could talk to my granny one more time. Miss her too much!
