Dream Light

You are the dream.

Every person is born with a dream,

your dream is your guiding star,

it is meant to lead you

to a greater place, of understanding.

To understand who you really are,

this is the beginning of wisdom.

And the dream gives life meaning.

And the light gives life purpose.

The path you seek is within you,

just let your dream lead you to the light

of your true self.

I really enjoyed reading your poem."And the dream gives life meaning. And the light gives life purpose." Yes, I agree that dreams give us meaning and purpose in life. It is so important to find your place, where you belong in the stream of life. Dreams allow us to accomplish amazing things. Hold to them tight and dream on! Well expressed and written..

Michael X,
Desire and motivation in a particular direction- this is unique to we people. Interesting that it is a feeling or a natural tendency and which comes naturally. Part of one's personality. To realize must be wonderful I think that many are living and acting within this gift and living and sharing and may not even know as it is simply a part of them. "Dream light" was a lovely instigator of though for me. Thank you so much. Kathy

I really dig the aspect of seeking wisdom through life in this piece. Follow your heart where it may take you and become enlightened. And through enlightenment find purpose and meaning. I very much like this writing. Thanks for sharing!

Poignant and thoughtful...everyone has a light they share or don't...but only we can understand ourselves. It is a blessing when we can share ourselves, at times. Awesome write, Mike.

i really like this. it is just so true and full of wisdom. great thought. sounds like something one would say in a commencement address. reminds me of a couple of quotes by my favorite writer:

"Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves." - Thoreau

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” - Thoreau
