Have Hope Like a Dreamer

I am a dreamer.

Everyday I wake up and I start to daydream about life and where I am headed, only to be pulled back by reality and realize that some of those things may not happen.  

“I want to be an adventurer,” I say.

I want to climb up a mountain, fight a bear, and come out of the fight unscathed. Or I want to be on Broadway and have an audience cheer me on.  I could even be pirate fighting with swords and swinging on a rope to another boat and take their treasure, and be known as the best woman pirate ever.   

These are great and all, but then here I am, sitting on a couch eating leftover pizza and thinking of the future.  A future that will never exist.

I think that is hurtful for me.  I spend all this time thinking up some grand adventure and then all I do is school, homework, Netflix, and sleep. 

The real type of dream I should be having is the one we call aspirations. 

I was talking to my friend to try to get out of a writers block and she was talking about a dream she has.  

Her dream is to have a family.  She got really excited knowing that it is coming soon and then it will be amazing.  Hearing this made me wonder about my own dreams. 

I want to be able to help people.  To let them know that they are loved in every way possible because I don’t ever want them to feel like they are alone and no one is there for them. 

I want to learn as much as I can.  To learn about everything and anything and to share my knowledge with others so they can see the wonders of the world.

These are just a couple, but the one I want the most is to share my happiness and love with people.  

I want to be able to do something about these and I think that I am already going in that direction.  I have started this blog, which has already made me learn so much about everything from life to businesses. I have learned to write better and convey my thoughts in new and different ways.  

I have already shown some ways that people can help themselves.  Through the different topics that I write, people can learn more about themselves and their world.  I also share my own happiness by having this blog. 

I am already on my way to achieving my dreams and looking forward to doing that makes me really hopeful.  

Having that hope for the future is tough.  There are going to be days where you don’t want to achieve them and you don’t think that you can.  Trying even one day at a time will help you to have more hope for that future and will make you excited for tomorrow.
