Live Your Dreams

Your Big Dream


There once lived a fellow,
a quite ordinary fellow,
who one day decided
to not be quite
so ordinary after all.

So with a feather
in his sack
he set off to find
his Big Dream.
Leaving familiar behind.

His comfort zone
for so many years
where he felt safe
if somewhat discontent.
But not really knowing.

He had to face
his bullies,
even those he loved,
and leave them behind.
Or they would cost him his dream.

Then he had to go
through the wasteland
where he learned
to have faith to go on.
And found sanctuary.

Until one day he found
his Big Dream
which was helping people.
Anybody people
to find their Big Dreams.

So I've been reading The Dream Giver recently which was a book given to me by my mentor to read.  This poem was inspired after reading this book and dedicated to my mentor Nancy because she is an inspiration to anyone who is looking to pursue their big dream!  She is definitely helping me to pursue mine.  I'd also like to dedicate this poem to Larry, Kevin, and Kent who helped me in a big way the past couple of years.  If it wasn't for their help I would probably not have made it this far.  

According to the Dream Giver everybody has a Big Dream!  Especially you!  So what are you waiting for?  Go pursue your Big Dream!  Starting now!
