THURSDAY MOTIVATOR - Your Dream

[joeyjoe]

Posted: 10/28/04 at 7:02am

Somewhere in you is a dream. It's probably buried deeply under all the day-to-day concerns, yet somewhere in you it lives.

It's not at all practical, and it's probably a little outrageous. Even so, it energizes your spirit like nothing else can.

It rises to the surface every now and then. And when it does, for a short while, the years melt away and you touch that place where everything seems possible.

Then it usually sinks back down under the surface of your awareness. And there it waits, patiently, never losing its hope or its luster.

Your dream, as crazy and impractical as it may seem, is trying to tell you something. Your dream, with its promise that you all too quickly, all too often dismiss, wants to tell you who you are.

Isn't it time you truly listen to what it has to say? Perhaps it is time to begin following that dream, and live the purpose with which you're blessed.

Absolutely describes me at the moment. And the whole motivator was really very motivating today.

To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
To run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
To love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march into hell
For a heavenly cause
And I know, if I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars
Still strove with his last ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable stars!

joeyjoe and I seem to be on the same page most (if not ALL) the time...that is why we're so good together, in my humble opinion.
Good morning Rathmeister.

Thursday is a report. Interest must follow importance.

[Rathnait62]

Thursday is a promise. Importance is interesting enough.

joeyjoe, want to take the time to let you know how cool i think it is that you take the time out to post these motivators on the board on a daily basis. a couple of weeks ago i was going thru a "rough patch" and you're motivators, believe it or not helped me get through, gave me some inspiration and helped me put things into perspective. don't stop posting them. they're as good as a friend reaching out to show a hand of support. bless you. i wish you all the best. i truly believe in karma. you put good out there, you're gonna get it back. thanks again joey.

btw love your franken berry icon!
