Dreams we Dream

In our lives we also have many dreams, some of them are dreamt at night and are just thoughts and concerns that have lodged themselves in our sub-conscience. Some of us had dreams of a certain career, spouse, life long friend, vacations or children. Some of these dreams might come true, some of them might need a little work and some of them might come true but may be snatched away before our very own eyes. It’s hard to let go of a dream, especially one that has come true, but it is part of life and sometimes it is part of the dark side of life. We learn how to deal with it and be stronger when we come out on the other side.Have you ever had a dream that seemed so real that when you woke up you weren’t sure what to believe? Do you retreat into your life’s dreams with the hope of finding one perfect reality? Sometimes life can be stranger than a dream and the only way to wake-up is to face what lies hidden. And you can only hope that when you find yourself in those, sometimes dark, moments of reflection that you are not alone? What would you do if what you thought was true turned out to not be? And what you thought wasn’t true turned out to be true? I hope I have given you something to think about or even talk about.

Life, Dreams & Trust

Have you ever thought about life and the people in yours, really thought about it? Who have you let into your life, trusted with your fears, dreams, love and life?At times life comes at us from nowhere, from out of the darkness. At times we can find it hard to face life, we try to erase the shadows crowding us, and when thrown in the deep end we learn to sink or swim. Who do you choose to turn to when life gets too much, when coping becomes a fight for survival, when you feel the need to not be alone? Is it someone you trust, someone wise who will guide you with their love for your? Is it someone who has proven their worth, proven that you can trust them when


things get tough?



When we look at our lives from this angle, we start to wonder who we have let into our lives, who we turn to and who we trust?

Who do you turn to when life gets dark and twisted? We have all had a moment or two (or more) where we have needed that someone we trust, someone who loves us (not talking about spouses here) and will guide us on the right path when we ourselves are not able to. Can that person really be trusted? Some of us have had a someone we trusted with our deepest secrets and have had them misuse that trust…we have all had that person who would guide us but when it comes to crunch time they desert you. I am sure most of you have some tales to tell and some scars to show. We all do.

Choose wisely when choosing the people you let close to you, take note of who you trust with your fears, dreams, love and life. And if you have been used, hurt or burnt, don’t let that influence the way you view society, let yourself heal and learn to trust again because none of us were built to go through life alone! I love that old saying “what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger”. Don’t let the wicket of this world stop you from morphing into a beautiful butterfly – go out there, choose carefully and live life like there is no tomorrow.
