Dreaming,...

Does it end? When you give birth to your children? When you are inundated with ball practice, music practice, and  recitals? When you learn to live with insomnia, because of babies, or babies that are no longer babies? When your life takes so many twists and turns from what you thought was your original destination, that you can't recognize the path you set out on in the first place?

Life is too short. So while folding and washing dishes, dream. even more, chase your dreams, not like on a lazy Sunday walk, but on a race for your life. If you lose yourself in the process of life, and don't recognize who you've become, it's time to chase again. Chase love. Chase Life. Chase the you whom you want to be. If you remember what it was you really wanted and still do, chase that. If you have become so much more (or different) than what you thought you could, chase a new dream.

I dream I am peaceful in all I do. I reflect the love of the Savior in all I say and do. I dream my children don't fight,... well, at least they don't pummel each other. I dream, one day I can be ,... whatever is possible. Whatever is imaginable. Whatever is attainable. Not in my own eyes, my parents, spouse or children. But by the One who created me and knows my true potential.

I send this out to the great cosmos that is out there, so I can be accountable. Peaceful. Free to be.
