Ok, it probably isn’t. Don’t bother looking on The Internets to prove me wrong… I just like to believe that I make the tiniest cranes.
Why cranes, you might wonder? Well, because I am one hell of a stubborn girl sometimes, and I had read that Japanese legend, that said that if you folded 1000 cranes, you got to make a wish… (see storyΒ here)
I had to try.
And I did… I folded crane after crane, after crane… I spent all the free time I had folding the little things using paper of every shade of every color you can imagine. I have bags full of them… I would have to count them again, but last time I did, I had over 800 of them ready.
And one day, I stopped. I’d rather say “paused” because finishing this thousand cranes is still on my “to do” list.
And on that special day, when I fold the thousandth bird, I hope I’ll be granted my wish… But if the legend says so, there’s no reason to doubt it. Right?
I wish I knew how to fold those still!!! I think that’s very cool, deff blog when you finally fold your thousanth!!

i heard that same story when I was much much younger…..I have…well had…980 of those little suckers at one time..then I thought, what if I actually finish? then whatever dreams I had wouldn’t ever come true again unless i started over.so I have never finished. lol

LOL… why doesn’t this surprise me??
I don’t remember what caused me to stop back then… I was a real machine at the time, and it was a running joke in my surounding, because I always had my origami paper with me, no matter where I went.
I’ll finish my 150 or so missing… And if I don’t get my dream, I’ll sue Japan!! Ha!

Is that job worth it … π
