Dreams

"Sometimes a dream is the only glimmer in our eyes."

We all have dreams. They come to us naturally. Dreams often let us know what we're gifted to do as

the inclination is strong to pursue a certain career or activity. Dreams fill our mind and give us a 

purpose - something to look forward to. Sometimes a dream is the only thing we have that makes us 

want to go on. We create stories in our mind about what it's like to pursue and finally achieve our 

dreams. If someone wants to be a designer, I bet it gets really colorful in his or her mind. The future

designer sees the materials, the sketches and the completed designs vividly in his/her head. A smile 

comes across the face of a dreamer. Just dreaming about your aspiration is satisfying.

     Then there's the flip side (there always is). Some people do say that some dreams are unrealistic

and when we hold on to these lofty ideas about what we should be, it prevents us from enjoying what  

we actually have. This makes us dissatisfied with our lives and prevents us from appreciating what's in 

front of us. So, yes, we need to dream but also there's a time to let go of a dream that just isn't the path 

for us.

Starting Over

If only we could start over, the sky would always be blue and our love would always be true.      So many of us wish for a "do over." We wish we could step back into time and do some things differently. We don't like some of the results we have now so we want to go back and change our answers. We may find ourselves asking the question: What could I have done differently with the  same tools or opportunities that I had then? Now more than ever I understand why we sometimes think like this although it may be entirely fruitless to do so. After all we can't change the past, what is done is done. However, it may help us to find peace with our decisions if we turn them inside out, analyze them and determine why we made them. This could help us to make less choices that we will regret later on.      Getting older certainly can play some tricks on our mind. It has made me think more and more about when I was younger. This, of course,...

Perseverance

"There's darkness and light, sunshine and rain. Nothing remains the same."      Life is a battle in itself. Every day we fight for or against something or even someone. As soon as  we cross one river, there's another to cross. This is why we can often feel like throwing our hands up  and just give up or give in. The light at the end of the tunnel may be taking too long to appear.  That's when we feel like it's all too much and we just can't be bothered anymore. However, when that  wave of hopelessness crashes into us, that's when we have to become a skilled survivor, ride it out  and come out on top.      We have to remember that nothing remains the same, after the darkest night, the sun still appears. When we keep on fighting that's when we get rewarded for not giving up. But we have to believe that things can change for us. When we embed hope in our heart, the light appears.  I went throug...

Companionship

                     "We can touch each other in so many ways,                  throughout the nights and the days.                  You don't have to be near,                  as our love travels through the air" I have heard more than one real life case where someone passes and they are only discovered some days  later on. This is due to the fact that they lived alone and also largely went unnoticed. So many thoughts cross my mind whenever I hear of this. You wonder who were their loved ones. Were those who cared  about them far away? The most unsettling thought is that they may not have had anyone who truly cared for  them. I recall reading an article where it detailed that the man lived alone, ate alone, slept alone, and died  alone. This was all to solidify the point that lon...
