What's Your Dream?

We all have them. What's your dream?

I'm not wanting to sound too much like the movie, "Pretty Woman." However, seriously. What dreams do you have?

What have you done in the last month to bring them to fruition? How about the last couple of weeks? Week? Weekend? Today?

I pray you can say that you've done a great deal in each of the above increments to make your dream come true. Otherwise, why dream?

If you've stopped dreaming, then that begs the question. Why? Life is challenging enough without giving up on a dream. Never give up. Aim for the stars. Dream and dream big.

Why should I dream? You may ask.

It colors our lives. It makes them more fulfilling. It brings purpose. Moreover, you have nothing to lose in dreaming and trying to make it come true.

There are no such things as an impossible dreams. Every dream can come true. The only limitations we have on our dreams are self. We sabotage our dreams, make them so lofty no one could bring them to pass, or we are so set on failure that we make it a self-fulfilling prophecy.

So, dream. Dream big. Your life can be brighter, have purpose, and can put a little spring into your step.

Motivation

What motivates you? What keeps you plugging along when times are difficult? What keeps you after your dream?

Let me know your thoughts on the subject.

For me, my faith and patriotism are what make me passionate about life. They help motivate me in difficult times and are what bring me joy when I'm going through a happier time. If it was not for my faith, I definitely would not be the woman I am, doing what I am, or writing what I do.

What keeps me after my dream? My faith and my husband's prodding when I need it.

What keeps me editing when my eyes go blurry? Lots of breaks so I don't miss anything.
