Dreams

This past week I have had strange dreams and occurrences while seemingly sleeping peacefully. Not my best week of rest. Waking up in the dark with my heart beating wildly, or small parts of my dreams pointing to real feelings, or even happenings that leave me with more questions than answers make nap time a need not a luxury.

On the other hand, there are dreams we all have for the way we want our lives lived. Some do come true, but most evaporate with age and/or circumstances. These dreams can seem frivolous like marrying a tall blue eyed blond and finding real love with a shorter brown eyed brunette. We sometimes imagine our life purpose as only a mother, wife, or teacher of children, and find a different path that takes trail off of that road. These changes usually are lead by words of someone who sees something in us that we do not see, or even imagine!

I had that someone, maybe many of those some ones who lead me on the path to being an author/poet/speaker. These people saw me writing and speaking words that more people needed to hear. I have been pushed and some of these insightful people have walked beside me leading, learning and cheering me along the way. But, still, I sometimes doubt what they see.

What makes me so blind to my abilities? I do not have an answer, but I do know that I must press on and in humility give these people something to really cheer about.

What are your dreams? Have they been fulfilled? Has someone spoke a purpose into your dream and watched as it came true? I am here to cheer you on. Let me know what I can do to help you take the next step.
