Dreams

I had a dream. Sure, it was a little unrealistic, but it was my dream. It's hard to have a dream come face to face with reality. Until it does, there's still hope that it in fact might come true.

DREAMS
Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.

Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.
by Langston Hughes

So, for a bit, I'll grieve the loss of my dream and then I'm sure another dream will come along and I'll get swept up in the potential of this new dream. Dreams do come true--I've seen it in my life and in the lives of others--but, it's not every day.
