Dreams...

We all have dreams. Daydreams, dreams in our sleep, dreams of the future. Yet so often, that's all they ever seem to be...

As I'm writing this, my little sister is watching Tangled just next to me. If you're at all familiar with the movie, you'll know it's got a lot to do with dreams. Following your dream, finding your dream, living your dream; but also, often realising in doing that that your real dream is not what you really thought at all.

I've had many dreams. Of all sorts. Dreams of different futures; of things that could be, or could change, or that I could do. Dreams of places, times, people. Love, of course. I think we all do.

And, sometimes, those dreams have come true. And usually, when I least expect it. I got to go overseas; I got into the uni degree I wanted; my music has made people laugh, and smile, and think; I got into the job I wanted, and then again; I've been able to see beautiful, wonderful things; I've had amazing friends that have been there for me all through my life, and a great family that loves me so much; I've discovered so many things about myself; I've become so much closer to God.

I'm only 20, and already I have so much. So many things to be thankful for, and to thank God for. And yet, I still seem to want more. Part of the human condition, in part, I guess. We always like to think that there's more for us. Maybe I'm just a whiner. I hope not. I'd like to think that there's more to me than that. I dunno.

But I still have dreams; and I suppose it saddens me to think that perhaps these are ones that are just dreams. I've had dreams before that haven't gone anywhere, sure; but there's always been another that has. I think I just need to be a little more patient; which seems to be an ever-harder thing to ask for in today's world.

I know these blog posts tend to be in the form of me asking a lot of questions, and not really giving that many answers; perhaps that's not the best thing, but it seems to be how I work.


On another quick note; I've just hit over fifty thousand views on my blog! Now, admittedly, if you cut out my Four Chords list, that does drop down to about ten thousand, but I still think it's a good milestone to celebrate. So thanks everyone who reads my blog :) This is a really useful avenue for me, and I'm quite grateful that every now and then I can just go on here, post a bit about something, and people will have a look.

So yeah, thanks :)
