Dream a Dream


As I sit here at my desk, "Anne of Green Gables: The Continuing Story." music flowing in the background.. I feel deep and highly capable of doing anything. Also as my thoughts flow from my mind, through my finger tips and onto the typing keys, blooming out these words to you, I feel like dreaming...
Many times when you dream... you dream of your future, the things you wish happened in the past or the things you wished were reality. We have a natural element to fantasize things, its in our genetics. But its what we fantasize that makes a difference, I many times dream of how I wish I was a heroine of  a novel, either one I'm writing or one I'm reading.
A thing I've learned over the past couple of weeks is this, we are all in a series of novels and we have the ability to be the heroine or the friend that helps when needed, the co-pilot to the plane going down or almost anything. No matter how dull you think your life may be there is always one who is interested and will pick up your story and read it, they may give you a sour face or a face full of shining from their beaming soul but, its from those very faces we learn!
We all utter a story with each step, we all have stupid unreliable things happen, that we think are the most unnatural things and then we reach the next climax to our story.
One thing that I've noticed is that, the main character of the most cherished stories are holding on to a dream or goal they've set their hearts on and with everything in them, they go for it!
Weather its foolish or prize winning, in the end they come out successful!


In "Anne of Green Gables." She learns that all the dreams in the world or all the things you can imagine cannot grasp the beauty or the perfection of love. Because most of the time its lying right in-front of you!
In "An-Old Fashioned Girl." She learns that staying true and being "old-fashioned" is a dozen times better than trying to be something your not and because she learned that lesson and stuck to it in the end she got the better end of the stick, so to speak, than most of the "honored" girls she knew.
In "Little Women." Jo learns that sticking to your dreams, weather or not they turn out the way you planned, is better than wasting your time. Because you always learn new lessons and meet new people in the end, despite the mishaps or the unfortune of your dream!
So dream a dream my friends, be the heroine you long to be, and look on to the climaxes of your story. Your living a reality only you can make and leading a person only you can lead!


One of my favorite lines of, "Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium" is this:

"Your life is an occasion. Rise to it." Mr. Edward Magorium 

So let us live those words, dream those words and let us give history something to read about!
