So many people in so many places struggle with living a life that is filled with unrealized dreams and self-doubt. It does not matter if we are talking about relationships, career, or life in general. We all have dreams. Mistakenly, many think dreaming is child’s folly which has no place in the life of a “grown up.” Nothing could be further from the truth. Dreams are more than some illusionary endeavor that stays in some sleepy state remaining untouchable.
Dreams fuel every great humankind movement and advancement. Dreams find a path through the most difficult of problems and most tiring of obstacles. Dreams make the impossible possible. Dreams allow you the opportunity to experience a greater purpose to you life. Dreams do not take the passive road to fulfillment. Dreams demand that you get off your behind and work towards their end and not towards your comfort.
Maybe that is why dreaming is so scary for many to embrace. A dream deferred is gentle way of saying what people are doing to themselves. The harsh reality is that many people are living a “Dream Denied” life. I constantly hear people denying and berating their dreams in ways that is disrespectful to the soul.
Do you have the guts to take your dreams out of the closet and put them on for size. You might be surprised how well they fit.
