Do not Forget To Dream

Like many of you, I remember as a kid that I had some life dreams. You know, the thoughts of what you wanted to be when you grew up. Some boys wanted to be firemen and some girls wanted to be dancers. The two professions that I dreamed to be was a teacher or a hair stylist.

But when you went through school and learned more, your dreams might have changed. Or things might have happened and you lost those dreams entirely.

As an adult, many of us feel that the dreaming is over but it’s not. Yes, there might be some careers that your body might be to aged for but there are plenty of other things to dream about.

See, when we dream or fantasize about something, it is healthy for us. It keeps our minds feeling young which in turn motivates us. Yes, you might not be able to become a fireman now but you could always do some kind of volunteer work for them. Or your body might not be limber enough to become a dancer now but do it as a form of exercise.

Maybe another dream could happen. One that you didn't even realize that you had. For me, it is writing. Throughout my life I wrote some poetry here and there and even jotted down a couple of short stories, but I did not think I would do anything with it.

To my own surprise I have done something with it. I love writing and have written two books so far (you can get them on Amazon). No, I do not make much money doing it so I work a job too. But, the idea that dreams can happen at anytime in our lives is what is important. I did not even realize that being an author was one of my dreams. I was directed by another author who I reached out to and she told me about Substack. Thanks to her at;

and Substack, I began writing and am still writing three years later.

So, do not give up on dreams. If anything, dream more and even bigger. Because, you never truly know when a dream will come true.

Until next time, have a wonderful day and God bless.
