If you would rewatch Mad Men, you might notice that Donald Draper is not well adjusted. It's not subtle either.

What makes you say that wishes are finite? Do you ration them out to your loved ones?

We have finite time, considering ones wishes towards someone takes a portion of that time even if it is a very small fraction of time.

If we get into it, I think that beliefs are a better abstraction that wishes. Beliefs structure relationships. How does a person believe that he relates to another person. So when I think of "wishing someone well", it's an English-language nuance that makes it an activity, but in reality it's a choice of what beliefs I hold. And, I find, the only beliefs that are a chore to carry around are those that don't serve me.
