Dream Casting

A great battle was taking place inside of me as I woke up this morning. I looked out to the gloomy wet outdoors. As my sister and mother awoke I knew I had to express how I really felt in my heart in where my passion and dream lies. They encouraged it and pretty soon we were engaged in a deep conversation and were pretty soon casting casting dreams. For the first time we all revealed the dreams that we were so afraid to tell anyone, even to each other. It was a great moment of bonding which I will never forget and I thank God for it. I read out excerpts of John C. Maxwell's book, " Put Your Dreams to the Test" and they listened intently. For the first time in a long time we really opened up. You could see their mind just being blown away! No one would ever believe the peace, calm and respect that we experienced in the living room together had they seen the horrible family feud last night.

I still have questioned that are remain unanswered for now. But this have I purposed in my heart, that I would not settle for a mediocre life, that I will not just be okay at what I love to do, but I would do all I can to be the best at what I do. I want to also love what I do. I have many dreams and they are big dreams. I know what is impossible with man is possible with God. I know He is with me and through Him I can do all things. I encourage you today to really be real about your dreams. Do not push them away and live a lie. Be who you are created to be. There is great peace and freedom in that. Mind you, I will still give the LSAT a try but my focus is not to be a lawyer but it is to be the best that I can be, and to be who I was created to be. And hey if it happens to be a lawyer great! But I will not drag myself, deceive myself, and live in frustration all my days. The choice is yours. You can live your life now, later, or never. Oh and by the way, the sun is shining bright outside and the sky is a bright blue, oh what a beautiful day!
