Dreams


Saw this quote on www.oprah.com by Eleni Gabre-Madhin from Ethiopia: We spend most of our lives cutting down our ambitions because the world has told us to think small. Dreams express what your soul is telling you, so as crazy as your dream might seem—even to you—I don't care: You have to let that out.

My dream has always been to have a close knit loving family but through numerous divorces and miscommunications we are far from that; but I still hold on to that dream-perhaps sometime in the eternities when we look back at this short time we are on earth together, there will be that moment of understanding and unity. What is your dream?

One more thought from Maya Angelou, famous black woman poet: And as Angelou once said, "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again."
