Three wishes
A genie asks you to make three wishes.
My first wish could be this: to remain calm in every situation. Whatever may happens, I would like to remain in complete possession of my thoughts and actions, without be conditioned from anxiety or panic.
About my second wish... I would like to be able to listen to everyone who is talking to me, even if he's talking about something wich isn't intresting for me. I also would like to be listened and well understood in return. I think that nowadays it's very difficult to be correctly understood. Everyone is busy and has no time to listen to what someone is saying to him. This cause much misunderstandig that, in turn, makes people act in the wrong way.
And now, my last wish. I would like to get in my memory everything I see and everything I hear. It often happens that I forget someone's name or something to do. I hate this! It's very embarassing to talk with someone without remembering his name! It's annoying to get home and, only in that moment, realizing that you have forget something. Furthermore, if you could remeber everything you have read, you will be able to get a lot of informations everytime you wil need them. This would certainly increase your cleaverness.

About As for my second wish... I would like to be able to listen to everyone* who is talking to me, even if they are talking about something which isn't interesting to me. I also would like to be listened to and well understood in return. I think that nowadays it's very difficult to be correctly understood. Everyone is busy and has no time to listen to what someone is saying to him. This causes many misunderstandings that, in turn, makes people act in the wrong way.
And now, my last wish. I would like to keep in my memory everything I see and everything I hear. It often happens that I forget someone's name or something to do. I hate this! It's very embarassing to talk with someone without remembering his name! It's annoying to get home and, only then, realizinge that you have forgotten(?) something. Furthermore, if you could remember everything you have read, you will be able to get a lot of informations everytime when you wil need them it. (information is usually singular) This would certainly increase your my cleverness.
Well done!
*everyone is singular, but in this context it flows better to use 'they' suggesting many individuals
