Dreams

"Your dreams are not yours by accident.
You have them for a reason, many reasons,
not the least of which is to make them come true.
Your dreams, ARE WHAT'S MEANT TO BE!"
-Unknown-

Your dreams are yours for a reason.
Never stop dreaming.
Keep your dreams close to your heart,
and know they are meant to be.

Without our dreams what would we be?
Hollow souls wondering what can fill us?
Feeling empty inside because we have no hopes or desires.
Our dreams make us real, the make us feel, they makes who we are.

So point your head to they sky and keep nourishing your dreams.
Dream baby, dream!!

Spinning

Spinning
Spinning
Spinning

Riding the roller coaster
UP
DOWN
AROUND

Constantly coming around the corners
making the sharp turns
and dropping down the hills

Wanting the ride to stop
Screaming as every hill is approaching
Trapped inside the strap

Feeling safe
and like I am going to die
All within the same breathe

Not sure when this torture will stop

Reminiscing

Spent the weekend down the shore and had such a wonderful time.
It is so nice to be around family and reminisce about my childhood.
There were some things my brothers remembered that I did not.
It was such a wonderful time.
Moments like this, remembering the past, really make life beautiful.

Good times!

I just wanted to share this photo today. It was from when I visited Key West Florida, what a fabulous place. We drove around for awhile looking for a spot and then decided just to park in the lot. Our car is right in the middle of the photo. As soon as we walked ot of the lot we noticed the empty spot we drove right past...Classic. Oh how funny. It is moments like this which makes life memorable.

Not harboring unhealthy thoughts

I am in the middle of Elizabeth Gilbert's; "Eat, Pray, Love" and am enjoying every sentence. What I was reading today resonated with me so much that I wanted to share it here. There is no need for background knowledge of the book just this quote:

"I will not harbor unhealthy thoughts anymore"

Unhealthy thoughts do us no good. They only bring us down, make us angry, and never get us where we want to be. So I need to start taking control. Control of my thoughts. Understanding my unhealthy thoughts, and then letting them go. Setting them out to sail in the ocean.

A wooden sail boat set on fire with each unhealthy thought inside. The boat slowly burns, creating an amazing glow on the ocean, and slowly each unhealthy thought sinks to the bottom of the ocean, never to be seen again.

When unhealthy thoughts enter my head I need to repeat:
"I will not harbor unhealthy thoughts anymore"

I tried this today. Repeating this every time an unhealthy thought entered my head. I felt more at peace with myself, and a lot happier. I did not let my anger control me instead I controlled my anger. It felt good to be in control. I think I will stick with this one for awhile, I just hope in my time of need I remember it.

Following through

I always have these fabulous ideas
Things I want to do
Goals I want to accomplish

Yet

I never follow through
I Never follow through

I love my ideas
I love thinking about them
thinking about how I want to accomplish them

Yet

I never follow through
I Never follow through

Why?

Why can I not follow through with my grand plans and schemes?
Why do I love what I want to do but never do it?

Learning Spanish
Taking more photographs
Working on my scrapbooks

I have began all these things,
yet here they sit today...Unfinished

I wish I could hold myself accountable,
Maybe I need some help??
