Dreams

by Chelsey   May 22, 2013


Maybe dreams should be feelings and
not money makers. Things like:
-fall in love and stay there.
-choose to be happy when it storms.
-find strength in faith and never lose it.

Perhaps then, dreams will come true
without sacrifices, without
consequences.

Maybe then, people wouldn't have to
"chase" dreams, they'd be in our reach
every day for our taking.

In fact...they are.

    This is so great and true Chels. I think sometimes we have dreams and because we think they are far away we see it as impossible to get there, rather than, it might be hard work but we can get there if we want to.

    I enjoyed this and love the wording. I also like the ending because it was like everyone related to the poem reading it and then your last line was a smack in the face saying this poem can be true if you want and believe it.

    Loved it

    Chelsey, this is one of those poems you read and think...hang on a minute, was she inside my head. I've done a lot of thinking lately and my dreams have been one of the things I've focused on and thought about, because there are things I want, material things but to be happy and healthy are the most important dreams I have before anything material...

    It is really true what Hannah said, that all the money in the world doesn't make you happy, it can be a lonely life.

    You always write with such truth and positivity, the message here is so powerful.

    Very inspirational and positive. Sometimes we do need these kinds of words. Very nice work.

    It's true most people dream for success and material things when one should be dreaming for happiness. Some of the most loneliest/miserable people are billionaires.

    I love the three dreams that you highlighted... fall in love and stay there... adore the 'stay there'... because you can fall out of love just as quickly as you can in.

    Choose to be happy when it storms; that you will create a positive out of a negative no matter what, that when a storm arises, you will be outside dancing in the rain.

    I LOVE the "chase" dreams part... we wouldn't have to chase after what we wish we could have, it would float freely into our lives, it would be natural. It wouldn't be just a fairy-tale dream, it would be reality.

    Beautiful poem, Chelsey!

    Love all the positivity here you talk about Chels, and I do believe in the possibility of dreams, everywhere we walk...that first line grabbed me also and is so true! We want the dreams that will make our hearts whole and will last, not fleeting moments for satisfaction but real changes in our lives that will show us who we truly are and how we go there.

    So inspiring and motivational as you are! Do you leave for your big trip tomorrow or is it today? Anyway I hope you have a WONDERFUL time with you and your friends going w/ you, and I send big hugs :]
