I wrote a letter of wishes to my family.

I received many letters of wishes on my birthday.

I wished you well on your journey.

She wishes you well.

Wishful recycling is the act of putting items in the recycling bin that you hope can be recycled, even if you're not sure.

I threw a coin into the wishing well and made a wish.

Wishful thinking is the belief or hope that something you want to happen will happen, even though it is not likely or realistic.

I have a long wish list for my birthday.

I hope all your wishes come true.

I wish I could fly.
