We never want to be the people that seem to be on the endless treadmill of life. It's easy to get into survival mode. It's easy to just go through life doing the day-to-day, and forget what things we aspire to. Dreams should guide you through your day, through your week, through the month, through the year. Dreams should be the thing that makes each day precious, and every day coming up, something to look forward to.
Sometimes, just putting a voice to the things we want can reaffirm what we do today. We may not get it all done, some of our dreams may change as the years go by, but these dreams-they are apart of who we are, and who we will be one day...
