Dreaming

Since as early as I can remember, I have been called a dreamer. I know many that would get offended by that, but I never did. I always felt as if it were a compliment. What do you have if you don’t have dreams? I never used my dreams to escape reality, but rather to guide. I always felt that if I could envision it while lying down, I could accomplish it when standing on my feet.

Being a dreamer can be tricky. You can sometimes see the beautiful end results so clearly, but the path is usually not revealed. I dreamed about my wedding, but never saw the sacrifice of being in a relationship. I dreamed about my perfect home, but never the hard work that would be required to pay for and keep it warm. I dreamed about having children, but never foresaw the struggles that I would encounter trying to make that happen.

If it were not for being a dreamer, life would have defeated me long ago. It’s the dreams that make the hardships bearable. If I could not close my eyes and envision my next blessing, I would have nothing to look forward to.

I’ll take being a dreamer over anything else!

Happy Friday,
