it's all pretty now

11.03.2009


is it wise to admit to being a dreamer?
of course, you already know i love to dream.
but that hasn't always been the case...

once upon a time dreams were scary,
because they were so pretty and wondrous...
how could a little girl like me ever expect
it all to come true?

certainly there is disappointment in this life,
and the possibility of failure scared me even more than
the beauty and wonder.

then one day i woke.
isn't it all so beautiful?
the dreams and the failure...

you can't lose.

dream big dreams, and dream them little too...
because the little dreams are just as big,
and the failure is just as pretty as the dream.

You make me smile, tear up, and desire even more to keep on dreaming and failing.
PS: Girlfriend lunches are indeed a way to condition our souls with love and friendship;)

I am a day dreamer. Always have been. I love this post! It reminded me that it's time for me to make my dreams into reality!

anna. go listen to Darrel Scott's song "There's a stone around my belly"
GOT A HEART FULL OF DARKNESS
GOT A HEADACHE FULL OF DREAMS
GOT A LIFETIME OF MEMORIES
I DON’T KNOW WHAT THEY MEAN TO THIS WORLD
IS THERE A PLACE IN THIS WORLD FOR A DREAMER
IF DREAMING WERE ALL HE COULD BRING
WOULD YOU LISTEN TO A MAN WITH A STONE AROUND HIS BELLY SING?
