Dreams

"Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you've imagined." Henry David Thoreau

Young people dream outrageous dreams, fueled by their creative imaginations. Sit down on the floor and play with a five-year-old and you will be amazed at what that little mind can conjure up. Many as children have dreamed and imagined a life...a profession, an exciting hobby, a sports career, travel to an exotic place, the list is as endless as that young person's imagination. As they grow up, cold water gets thrown on them or the kids simply see that their ideas are less than practical. So the life they imagine gets put on the shelf next to those little toy cars, the action figures and the Little League trophy.

Well, maybe some of those dreams are out of reach, but not all of them are. The life you imagined has some possibility to it, or your mind would not have conceived it in the first place. And as long as you still have breath, it's not too late to make your dreams come true.

Susan
