“Every great dream begins with a dreamer. Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.”

Good Morning, Awakening Beings!
How many of you out there are scared to DREAM? And dream BIG? Thinking, Who am I to live a life that I desire? That’s selfish, so I will dream for my kids or others instead? My heart responds, Who are you not to? When we choose love, we must be self-loving and claim how special we really are. For years, I stopped watching shows like Oprah or American Idol because I was tired of watching others make their dreams come true while I was couching it, eating chocolate chip cookies, and wishing that I was “special.” I didn’t like the discomfort I created inside, so I avoided my trigger and people who were making their dreams come true. Anyone who reads my blogs knows by now that our triggers will not go away by avoiding them. And I learned the hard way.
Besides my “not enough” worldly program, I feared failure if I reached for the stars. And I was addicted to touching, holding, and having the star. So, why go for it? It just seemed too painful. Until I realized that it was more distressing to not go for it and put everything into achieving my dreams. This was my miracle (or change in perception), and I have been moving and shaking life up ever since, despite people's “good” or “bad” opinion.
Sure, I have big dreams of helping people from around the globe change their perceptions about love while distinguishing the doer from the deed. And I will receive exactly what I need for my spiritual growth. The Rolling Stones sing it so well: “You Can’t Always Get What You Want, But You Get What You Need.” I will continue to play the “what if” game for myself and release my need for life to be any other way than it is.
“What-is is.
What does that mean, ‘What-is is’?
It means that life is what it is and often there is nothing you can do about it. Resisting what-is is the road to suffering. You don’t have to like what-is to accept it.”
Our freedom is to trust our soul's path and let go of the outcome, allowing our heart to decide what is best for us and others.
“How do I accept what-is if I don’t like it?”
Practice saying ‘yes’ to what-is.
Take the deepest breath you can.
Exhale and say, ‘Yes.’
‘Yes.’ ‘Yes.’ ‘Yes.’.....
Practice.”
I know who I am and the depth of my service; and I say, "Use me up, God. You know what I want, and I am so relieved and humbled to be your servant, accepting what I need with all my heart.”
Ahhh...the sweet sounds of surrender. Please join me, my friends. Who Are We Not To Dream Together?
