Have a Dream

ME Liz Strauss wrote this at 6:25 am

Can we talk about . . .

something to look forward to.

In the business of living, we need three things: food clothing, and shelter.
But even folks who live in house with designer wardrobes and chef-prepared meals aren’t immune from feeling stuck and sometimes feeling hollow.

On a level higher than those three needs is a sense that our lives have purpose and meaning. It’s part of our humanity to want something we live for, something we look forward to doing or being.

Have a dream.

Don’t just have that dream, though. Put it on the horizon and make a path to it. Start working and walking in it’s direction. Picture yourself at inside it.

See the dream that you want, think that dream’s thoughts.

Live the dream. Make it your life’s business to be it.

    Hi Todd!
    Thanks. Great to see you today! I was thinking coffee in Tuscany would be a fine thing this morning. :)

    And make sure it is your own dream! Not something you “feel is expected of you”, or what the neighbours do or have. Sadly, too many people chase a ‘dream’ for too long before finding out it wasn’t what they really wanted in the first place.

    Here’s to inspired dreaming!

    Great point, Ray,
    We can follow a path someone has laid out for us — often without noticing that we’re doing it. Then, like you said, we get to what we worked so hard for and find it’s not what we wanted.

    Dream your own dream. Great advice.
