Dreams
Dreams come in all sizes and shapes, and just about everyone has them. I believe if you have dreams and imagination, you have hope. With hope comes possibility. These are some very powerful words: Dreams - Imagination - Hope - Possibility.
When you have them in your life they can bring change. I suppose through it all, I've been a hopeful person. And though my dreams have changed continuously, sometimes daily, I've also had the ability to dream. I've imagination and creativity to spare. What I've had a hard time doing is grasping possibility. Making those dreams, imaginings, and hopes come to reality. The possibility that I can make my dreams come true, can bring forth my imaginings, seems to be just beyond grasp.
Sometimes it's because I'm torn in so many directions -- I often envision myself as one of those avid tennis watchers with my head swinging this way and that unable to alight upon one single goal with enough enthusiasm to make the thought, idea, hope, dream a reality before I get sucked down the next train of thought.
Sometimes, and perhaps most often it's fear. Like most folks, I fear the unknown, the out of my realm. I'm always much more comfortable with knowing the exact steps and procedures of whatever is before me. Some of that comes out of having a chaotic childhood, and some of that is personality, some just basic human nature.
Although I love the wild side of life, I find it overwhelming when it is the primary aspect of my life. I need, and cherish some stability, so creating change, pushing forth on dreams, and hopes, and imaginings, can be off putting. I could list a million hopes, wishes, dreams, and ideas I've had over the years, but I think it is time to start focusing on my current dreams.
Even if they change every day!
