When I was little, I used to believe that I could do eveything- nothing was imposible. Then, my dreams were of being She-ra, of being a 'My little Pony', of marrying prince Eric in 'The Litle Mermaid', and then of being a brain surgeon (dont ask me why!)
Slowly, I discovered that Superman was an actor who actually lived in the strange world called 'Real Life' could not actually fly, Father Christmas was an actor with a cotton wool beard, The Tooth Fairy did not exist either.
Undaunted, I convinced myself that the 'Real World' which became increasingly imminent was a place reserved for adults and their restrictions. I continued to inhabit that amazing world of dreaming and the joy which came with that.And somehow miraculously, I acheived most of my dreams when I never questioned them.As crazy as these dreams were, I had no doubt that I would fulfill them- I did not understand what doubt was actually.
Fast forward to being a grown up myself. I now know much of the 'Real World'.
Nowadays, as an adult, when my dreams come, instead of allowing them to lift me up to the glittering realm of impossible possibility, I qualify them..
I ask how realistic the dreams are, I scoff at the ones that seem to impossible, I settle for the ones that seem conceivable/convincable/ safe/doable...
Well, I did this without even realising it, until someone recently reminded me of something: Everything is Possible.
I have now decided to untangle myself from my safe, doable dreams, and immerse myself fully in the crazy dreams that seemed impossible.
I believe that dreams visit us as invitations to our potential. Dreams are intimations of who we can be, if we follow them fully and throw caution to the wind
Will you dream along with me ?....
