dream

I used to think that all my dreams would come true, that my childhood thoughts would become reality. It was so much easier back then when you could actually believe that. When you didn’t have any pressure, and you thought you could achieve anything. 

A few weeks ago there was a friend who needed help and I told them to dream on, dream big, and just dream. I told them to dream, even if it might not come true, at least you have something to believe in. 

I made a plan, after high school, I'd become a business woman. I try to think of all the possibilities to get a house in New York city.  

I woke up from a nightmare and I'm hoping it doesn’t come true. I remember I would sit around the table with my family and tell them of my dreams for the future, for forever. 

They told me to dream up to the stars, because one day you might be leaving to fulfill your dream.

sincerely,
