DON'T GIVE UP ON YOUR DREAMS!

Don’t Give up on Your Dreams

This morning before my first cup of coffee, my phone rang.  I thought to myself, “Who could be calling me this early on New Year’s Day?”  The number was unknown to me and the voice at the other end of the line was unfamiliar as well.  A cheerful gentleman greeted me with “Happy New Year,” I replied in kind.  He went on to tell me his name was Mike and he was sorry to be calling me so early in the morning.  “I have interest he said, in your listed property on west Galveston Bay.”  {4.8 acres with 1 acre bay front}   

After finishing this call, I returned a call to a past client to wish her a Happy New Year.  She was so excited to tell me that she was looking to move back to the area and wanted me to start thinking of homes that may fit her needs.

As I gave thanks for such a wonderful start to a new year, I opened my daily devotion to read January 1, 2011……..“For I am about to do something new.  See I have already begun!  Do you not see it?  I will make a pathway through the wilderness; I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.”  Isaiah 43:19

Our dreams at times seem to be just that, dreams.  Something far away in the future, out of reach.  Take a fresh look at your dreams and embrace them, open your heart to the reality of what those dreams look like on you…right now…today…. accept that the future is today.

Hi Deb, and Happy New Year!

This is exciting news to see how your 2011 has gotten off to such a great start.  After 2010, try as I might, I am struggling to keep my positive outlook.  I'm still more optimistic than pessimistic, but even so, this post was just what I needed.  Thank you!

Don't ever give up on your dreams.  Dreams do come true.   A life without dreams is a life of giving up and nothing to strive for.

Stan..Thank you for your comments.  I am learning to not be tentative...step out on faith!

Charles..Keep looking up...!

Joni..He is and I can say this last year would have been unbearable without his grace!

Shannon..Thanks for your kudos!  2011 will be a great one!

Karen...2010 was a very tough year in so many ways, if you have not read the book or seen the movie, "The Secret" will change your life!  

Pat, You are so right.  Thank you for reading my post!

Wishing you all a wonderful and most prosperous New Year!!
