I almost didn't read it.
I have more things to do this morning than I have time, but something urged me to take a second look. Go ahead - read it for yourself - especially if you're a wannabe like me. I'll wait.
Y'all know my "it will never work" dream - the one where my photography and prose is published. I haven't a clue what I'm doing, my equipment is bottom-line and ordinary, I'm almost ready for social security and my current inability to wander to even the edges of Pollywog Creek make me much like a bird capturing photos of her cage. Borrrrrrring - just ask my family.
I'll delete this post half a dozen times before I gather the courage to post it, but post it, I will, because I know that you have a dream, too, and all the reasons "it will never work", and if I'm bold enough to share mine, maybe you will share yours, too.
I'd love to encourage you, as you have encouraged me.

My what a pretty cage you have - you should see mine! Thanks for the link, what an inspiring post. I think I'll dream a mighty big dream....
I hope you do dream a "mighty big dream"...and I'd sure love to hear it. You are an amazing quilter, Allie. So, so creative.
I went there. And I posted my dream that will never work. Thanks for sending me over there. I needed it. And...I believe in you and your dream!
My dream/wish/prayer too, is to be published. I want to write and share with others all the ways that God is good and I too, want to encourage those I meet to stretch their wings and take small action steps forward in the direction of their dreams. Love ya! Love your post.
I shared my dream on Jon's site and interestingly, this seemed to crystalize it in my mind. Thanks, Pat!
Oh....I'll have to go read it, Diane. Thank you.
You are the BEST, Robbi!!! Love you so much, sweet friend.
I surely believe in you and your dreams, too, Deidra. Now I need to hop back over to Jon's and find yours and Diane's "dream that will never work."
The cypress trees have their new leaves! I hadn't noticed. Thank you being like a breath of fresh air helping my eyes to see. Time to go to Corkscrew Swamp. Your gift is a blessing that is never boring.
Thank you friend and thank you God for the gift of this day. To live this day with my eyes open and to really see as He sees - all of it, the people and the places. This is my dream.
