Words from my mentor…
Why Dream?
“Life is a difficult assignment. We are fragile creatures, expected to function at high rates of speed, and asked to accomplish great and small things each day. These daily activities take enormous amounts of energy.
Most things are out of our control. We are surrounded by danger, frustration, grief, and insanity as well as love, hope, ecstasy, and wonder. Being fully human is an exercise in humility, suffering, grace, and great humor. Things and people all around us die, get broken, or are lost. There is no safety or guarantees.
The way to accomplish the assignment of truly living is to engage fully, richly, and deeply in the living of your dreams.
We are made to dream and to live those dreams.”

This is Your Moment!
In the comment section below make your dreams known and share with other moms how you are finding time to work on your dreams. I’m a true believer on baby steps (or as SARK likes to call them micromovements). It is my dream to work with moms who want to reclaim their lives while also raising their children.
Deciding to go to school part time, even if it’s just one class, can be an important first step for a lot of moms.
Vulnerable confession: I’m not a mom, but I appreciated SARK getting exposure here and I enjoy her work as well.
My dream is to live from love, that means living where I want to live and doing what I want to do WITHOUT feeling fearful and worry about scarcity.
My dream is to live from knowing that what my heart desires will attract the motions to make it happen as per the Creator’s plan.
We are here to cocreate from joyful anticipation.
I have been at this consciously for 9 years and I can tell you, it is not easy to not being dragged back by my old ways of the mind.
However I am working hard on it because how I lived my life will be my legacy for my daughters.
wilma Ham´s last blog post..Jesus would be proud of me, I can do miracles too.
Very nice. We really are fragile creatures and sometimes I think of how easy it is to fall off the roller-coaster of life, and I’ve seen too many people fall off before their time.
I have a simple dream. It’s just help people unleash their best. Really, I want everybody to have their best life possible.

Dreaming is such an important part of my life. One of the loneliest periods in my life was when I couldn’t dream of better things. I was about to start going through a divorce and I kept on urging my wife for us to set goals and build a dream. She didn’t see it the same way and I ended up becoming extremely depressed mainly because I couldn’t find a dream.
Ever since, I have never allowed anything in my life to hamper my ability to dream for a better life and make goals for the future. Great post and great thoughts..
Also, I’m a dad and noticed several other dad comments. I sure hope that its ok if I lurk across your mommy blog as many of the posts resonate with me 🙂

Well said! This is a great interpretation of life. I LOVED it!
Baby steps do matter, it’s like this quote:

taney´s last blog post..Guiding Through Change
I’m trying to recapture the dreams I had before children.
I am already partially living my a href=”http://www.angelghostdreams.com/Dreams.html”>Dream. I am a self employed lawyer, work only part time, live comfortably and get to spend quality time with my kids.
Time management is the key in my opinion.
My goal now, is to have the house of my Dreams built.
My dream is to have strong and healthy son that one day would become better person than I am 🙂
I like the words from your mentor. Maybe it’s nothing revealing mysterious secrets of human soul, but nice. Some things we treat as obvious and they are not so. For example, we can say often that we want to be good for others, but… If someone wants to be better person – let’s just do it! If you want to be good to your mother/brother/child/friend – just be! That would be my advice for anyone who thinks that simple things are so tough.
Thanks for sharing this Stacey.
I always thought that I knew what my dream was. I obviously didn’t as I wasn’t taking any action towards it.
Now having taken some length of time to figure it out, I now know what my dream is.
I desire to live my life from my heart, from doing things that give me joy and prosperity. To live without guilt, to be obligation free to stop being a people pleaser and to have ME be centre stage in my life. Once I am aligned with myself everything else will show up.
I’m on the road. I have a wonderful husband and daughter, I work at something that I truly love, I have abandoned being a slave to the money and I have found new explanatiosns that are useful to me in my life.
I believe that there are many people out there surviving life, who just do not know what their dreams are. Their head has never given their heart a chance to come up with the answers to the question ‘What is my dream?’
