This picture is of a setting sun, the end of the day. But that same sun that looks like it is going to sleep... is someone elses 'tomorrow'. It's not 'going away'... just continueing on its journey. Dreams are like that. They come....and they go. And some of our dreams keep coming around and around.... hoping maybe 'this time' we will stretch out our hands and do what needs to be done to make them come true. Are you ignoring your dreams? Are you convinced they can never come true? Do they keep coming around.... again and again? Maybe there is a reason for that. In Austin recently I was granted a re-visit of my past dreams.... that I thought had been long gone, and even dead. Just like the seed in the ground lies unseen.... yet nevertheless... a living thing... waiting for it's time of birth and new life..... so too do our dreams sleep within us..... waiting for their time to be brought to life. Don't give up on your dreams..... they are a special gift from God I believe. I had a dream of being a fully alive, vibrant, involved kind of person. I had forgotten that lately, until I was touched by the very life of Austin and the Hill Country of Texas. It was as if I had been in an induced sleep or something.....and in the hills of Texas.... Life's Breath was breathed into my soul. I literally came back to life there. I hope you too find your place that will revive you on the inside... and bring to life that deepest part of yourself.... waiting to be birthed into existence. It's never too late. Hugs, Grace |
