Dream Weaver

"Let us all hold fast to dream, for if dreams die, life is like a broken-winged bird that cannot fly." -- Langston Hughes

It's amazing to think of how, each of us, weave dreams everyday, every moment, and every chances life brings. We dream dreams big and small ... possible and impossible ... fiction and non-fiction ... dreams that are reasonably achievable but ambitious enough. These dreams fueled our enthusiasm to go further - to face life's endless battle for survival, and most especially, to drive each of us to work harder in order to realize our dreams.

But what do we need  to weave dreams? Do we need to invest something just to dream and realize them? Do we need somebody to help us make our dreams come true? Or do we need to depend on our own effort, our own faith and our own strength?

Some say that everything is possible under the sun. All you need to do is use the power of your mind, dream on, model your dreams carefully, focus on your dreams, let go and let God.

But what about the hindrances, the crossroads, the detours that life brings? Are we going to just ignore them ... pretend that they're not existing? Aren't they considered as stepping-stones instead of stumbling blocks? Are those really part of the plans God has in store for us? Are these hindrances part of the puzzle that we need to solve first before we can make our dreams come true?

Why am I complicating things anyway?

I guess, I just needed instant answers to all the questions in this dreamer-mind-in-me. Is it bad? I don't think so. Do you? Then I don't care. No matter what people do, I won't stop dreaming. Who can blame me when I know so well that I am a dream weaver like you do?
