Do you believe in the saying "be careful what you wish for"?

I feel like people say this only when it comes to bad things but I normally don't see the bad things people "wish" upon themselves come true.

My mom passed away last year and I had the closest relationship with her out of all of my siblings so needles to say that I took her passing the hardest and been having self-deletion thoughts but I don't anymore but I still stare at pictures of her in my phone and cry a lot and even cry myself to sleep.

So every morning and every night when I do my daily gratitude prayers, I often pray EVERY NIGHT that he calls me home very soon to be with my mother in the afterlife so that I'll no longer be sad from losing her because I'll be with her. Life hasn't been the same without her she was like a best friend, big sister, teacher, therapist, etc everything. I know that I should be living my life and chasing my dreams but my only dream is to be with her again because I miss her a lot.

But I personally never witnessed anyone "getting what they've wished for" or maybe it's in God's timing. Has anyone lived proof of this?
