Walking in a park this morning I started contemplating about how we all have dreams/vision for things; for some it might be a job, or a car, or home, boyfriend/girlfriend...the list can go quite long I'm sure, but I asked myself, "what dreams I am already living that were once a hope or a dream?"
In my mid-20's I thought I'd never get married...now I just had my 17th anniversary!
I thought we might not ever have children...then my son Zachary came by heartfelt prayer requests and miracles!
We wondered if we would ever replace the old computer with a new one...and here I am writing on it, writing posts for blogs that were once a dream.
Can you think of the dreams you are living or experiencing already?
Now that it's yours, whether it came recently or years ago, what can be done to keep them alive?...keep them nourished?...keep them growing?
Be thankful for the dreams and fulfilled visions that you already posess...of course, don't forget to dream new ones either.
Be real in your interactions with others...be true to yourself!

You know I like whta you say about dreams. Well one of them came true for a little bit. Maybe it was not meant to be. Who knows... Somebody said to me that if you hold a dream for too long they eventually come true. I have had this dream ever since I was a child and I'm still waiting. We'll see. I was a makeup artist for a while, did go to esthetics school and now I'm doing something way too different. I know its temporary but I do thank God for giving this job in the mean time since I could not make it with 15 hours a week. We shall see if my dreams do come true. Thanks for having me yesterday. Like the pictures by the way. You are blessed to have a GREAT family. I have one too but I know I'm focusing on something different and I just don't see sometimes not to worry about little things live the present and be glad with what I have. See you later! Hasta luego senor!!!
Thanks Everardo!
When we're thinking about our dreams, or how long it may take to get there...God also has not forgotten those things in our heart and the requests we have made, He also has our best interests in mind.
It sounds cliche, but when we really do open our mouths and thank God during the day for so many things it lifts our spirits and helps worries diminish.
Have an awesome day, to you, and to everyone who reads.
goodnight all, hopefully post before church, we'll see, really tired now.
Please keep Natasha in prayer, she will begin her 3rd day of steroids for her sinus/head pain but so far she hasn't seen much relief.
Played soccer a bit with Zachary today, baked a sugar-free cobbler, picked black-eyed peas and visited a good friend...still lots to be thankful for today.
