Dreams to Share

 

I thought about you on our walk today. I could imagine us in the future, laying side by side on the grass, staring into the sky, fingers intertwined, talking about your dreams. Talking about my young dreams, and what became of them. How often I have feared they might never be realized, but know this- often dreams are the making of something much more magnificent. Kind of like you. I could have never have dreamed how truly wonderful you and your brother would be- how you would change me and allow me to feel love so piercing I often catch my breath. I dreamed of having children and I dreamt a thousand other things as well. My dreams were always grand- living every kind of life. Dreams are just that- a beginning- to the thousand different lives we already live deep within us, when we just stop and feel the deep pull of what moves us to the core. Our desires are there, and so often being realized differently than how we imagined. Those  imagined lives may  seem so much more amazing in our dreams,  but if there is no appreciation for what is, the feeling is lost upon some idea of what could have been..instead, love, enjoy life so. When you are in tune with yourself, your dreams are being realized. I get this now, and it may have taking me awhile, but in the process I came to know you, and it settles my soul to know we have so much to share, many conversations and gentle love to grow.
