I have a dream

The phrase 'I have a dream' makes people think many things. I don't wish to make a grand speech, nor do I only have one dream. I have so many it's impossible to narrow them all down to a few good ones.

I am a dreamer. Not unrealistic mind you, but definitely the dream world is my happy place. I can occupy many an hour doing nothing but hang out on a comfortable sofa, with a throw and a cup of tea, starring out the window and just letting my mind wander. This becomes invaluable when life stinks.

And let me tell you, I have been through the life stinking part. And I am sure I will have those moments again. But the times I retreated into my daydreams kept me sane. I knew they weren't reality, and that if I lay there long enough, I KNOW nothing can happen since life doesn't usually hand you those dreams, you have to work for them.

Yesterday, I listened to the news. And I heard of something starting close to me that made the possibility of at least one dream of mine come true. We shall see. What a wonderful feeling to see something I have thought of all my life happening.

Proverbs 13:12 Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.
