Dreaming

What you dream alone remains a dream,
what you dream with others can become reality.
~ Edward Schillebeeckx

Dreams are sometimes the only thing that keeps us going….that and the faith that instilled the dream in the first place. Tomorrow is an Open House in the Chemin Neuf Community here. This is a dream of two people and one can see that they have leaned heavily on God for the reality to occur. They are surrounded by a small group of us who want their dream to be a reality. I look forward to that event.

My dream of taking an Alaskan cruise will be realized in a week. Twenty years in the making really, it is now possible only because my friend Sandy said she would accompany me. Today I ran into a woman who did the same cruise for her honeymoon two years ago. She loved it and told me that the food is to die for. Alright, that is what everyone talks about when they hear I am doing this. My reason for doing the cruise is to immerse myself in the magnificence of God’s creation. I cannot wait! However, it does seem like I will be packing on a few pounds if I am not careful.

What dreams do you hold this day? How long have you held them for? Why are you waiting to make them become a reality? What holds you back?

Peace,

Suzanne
