I found this book while shopping for my daughter. It whispered to me that I should buy it for the man I love -- the same man that I was afraid to tell how I felt. I tried to put it back three times and every time it psst'ed at me to pick it back up. All the way out, I told myself it was for my daughter, but I got courageous and gave it to him anyway. He now views it as one of his prized possessions. It is a book for all of us who have wished for someone to love.

In 1997, I met a woman who was everything I could ever have dreamed of having. Late in that year, she gave me this book as a very early Christmas gift, saying it had "whispered to her" as a way to tell me how she felt, when she could not bring herself to say the words.

It said far more than I could have dreamed of her telling me: Of wishes, hopes, dreams. It is a book I think of when I think of her.

This year, six years after we met, we will finally be married. I wish everyone could see within these pages the hope, love and beauty that we have found in each other, expressed in wishes in a book.
