tonight i listened to elton john speaking about his gift for music being his dream. how it's always been with him. how the people close to him fostered his gift. how he can never let music & melody go because it is his dream to create it.
i have this thing. i LOVE to witness folks fulfilling their dreams. be it they are winning the lottery or american idol. a game championship or a game show. it doesn't matter. i love witnessing the moment when a dream is finally attained. no matter how big or small.
i think dreams manifest for those rare few because they LIVE, BREATHE, EAT & SLEEP their dream until it just has no choice but to manifest! they SPEAK them into being!
that said i re-commit to fostering MY own dreams because i realize i just won't be content with this life any other way. it's not enough for it to be 'pleasant'. i want to witness my dreams!
i dream of seeing my 2 sons mature into good, strong, loving, honorable men. of seeing my mother at peace. of witnessing love & unity return to my family. of seeing my family... yes ALL of them healthy & really, really HAPPY.
i dream of living in a log cabin on a beautiful piece of land with a lake & canoe nearby. of spending my days, loving my soulmate, children & grandchildren. writing life-changing novels. fishing. tending my butterfly garden & rejoicing in a good life. what can i say... i am a country girl at heart?!
i dream of seeing my purpose fulfilled.
i vow to stop taking my dreams lightly. to stop subconsciously believing that i am somehow less 'worthy' or 'charmed' because my path has been less than perfect. to stop thinking my dreams are less dynamic because they don't entail winning a competition or becoming a 'superstar'.
i dream that i have spawned children {who will spawn children} with the gift of dreaming & believing cause reality is so OVERRATED!:-)
peace & OM:-)

This morning I'm sending out a wish for you: I wish all your dreams come true and that you enjoy every moment living your dreams and making them come true. And I'll send out a Metta Sutta for you as well, I've been using it since I saw it on one of your back entries:
May you be well,
May you feel protected and safe,
May your physical body support you,
May your life (and dreams) unfold smoothly with ease.
