Most of us have a dream. And when we first find it, it seems so easy. Our confidence is high. This dream is achievable. And then after time the vision grows dimmer…
“All our dreams can come true…if we have the desire (burning), determination, courage, passion, persistence and patience* to pursue them (and it’s often through the very dark places where they may lead)…long enough.”
“The best way to predict your future is to create it. So believe in your dream. Never throw it away. Believe in the dream even when it is impossible. Believe in the stars, even when they’re hidden in the storm.”
“Together, one mind, one life (one small step at a time), let’s see how many people (and lives) we can encourage, impact, empower, enrich, uplift and perhaps even inspire to reach their fullest potentials…and strive for and perhaps one sunny day even achieve their wildest dreams.”

“Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and follow where they lead.”
It was one day in the year 1961, whilst driving home after the South African Grand Prix in East London, that the young boy told his father that Jim Clark (see featured picture at top of page) would one day be the champion driver of the world. The young boy was in a bad mood, because the young Clark had beaten his hero, Stirling Moss. And for the next few years the young South African boy followed the rising Scot star’s ascending career with great interest and pride. So that the new shooting star eventually usurped the place of the now retired old hero, Moss after his near fatal accident at Goodwood, UK…until it too was tragically extinguished in a minor race at Hockenheim, Germany in 1968.
And that night in the “early sixties”, the young boy lay on his bed and read the race program, over again and again. Then he fell asleep and dreamt, peacefully, blissfully. Perhaps one day… one sunny day…
“Together, one mind, one life (one small step at a time), let’s see how many people (and lives) we can encourage, impact, empower, enrich, uplift and perhaps even inspire to reach their fullest potentials…and strive for and perhaps one sunny day even achieve their wildest dreams.”

“Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.”

Song (beautiful) Climbing Mountains, Chasing Dreams by Susan Boyle
Susan’s story, amazing, can touch and give anyone (yes anyone) hope and inspiration!

All of my life I have watched you
Climbing mountains, chasing dreams
All of my life you gave me everything
But you don’t have to give the world to me
Just say you love me as I am, say you want me as I am
Say I’m someone in your eyes, that’s all I want it to be
Oh, just let me go, I know one day if I’m allowed
If I’m allowed, one day I’ll make you proud
All of your life you’ve taken chances
Broke the rules time after time
All of your life you’ve gone your own way
Give me this chance and I’ll go mine
Why can’t you say you love me as I am?
Say you want me as I am
Say I’m someone in your eyes, that’s all I want it to be
Oh, just let me go, I know one day if I’m allowed
If I’m allowed, one day I’ll make you proud, oh
I’m trying to please you now, it’s all I seem to do
I’ve got to be me now ’cause there’s already one of you
I’m on my knees so help me please
Please don’t shoot me down
Though you can’t see it now
Someday I’ll make you proud

That’s my dream (a BIG one)!
but then ‘they’ do say…
“Make your dreams BIG enough for God to fit in (only God can do)!”
We’ll see what happens (whether I’m crazy…or perhaps just a smidgen *!)
* nice word that, eh
“We are all born crazy…
just some of us remain so”

“Life is about finding, then following the dream and one’s
dream/vision comes to reality through believing in yourself,
making the commitment and then creating it.”
