Walt Disney

"A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes"


Sound familiar?  Why does Disney World exist?  Because Walt Disney realized his big dream.  Everyone has one.  Don't you have a dream?  Are you running from it?  Are you too tired to go after it?  Time is going by fast and you will either have done it or not.  So...  what are you waiting for?

Fall Tanka

Falling Down


If I were a leaf
I'd be falling down and down,
Around and around.

Because it's that time of year
for leaves and changing colors.

Well...  it seems summer went by is a flash this year and I do mean flash as we had a lot of rain and bugs but not a lot of sun!  And now we are in the autumn months and did I even get a tan this past summer?  Not hardly.  All in all a bummer summer don't you think?

Games People Play


Exactly how much do you need encouragement?  Do you know that you need encouragement on a level that you never even dreamed of?  Did you know that "If you are not stroked your spinal cord will shrivel up?"  This author wrote this book about the dynamics of human relationships.  Interesting stuff!  Intriguing really!

Summer Moment

Sweet Nothings


In my mind's eye
I see a lake
shimmering
like a jewel.

I hear kids
laughing
and goofing
around.

I remember
a carnival
with just a dab
of shaving cream.

You see me.
I see you.
We met
one summer.

You sensed
my sadness
but also touched
my soul.

I remember you.
Do you remember me?

It's true.  Some people come into your life and remain there and some people come into your life and go back out again.  Sometimes by choice, sometimes not.  However you still remember the ones that mattered and made an impact on you in any way, shape or form.

Heaven


Do you want to know about heaven?  Then read a book by someone who knows about death.  This writer should know as he and his wife buried three sons in their lifetime.

The Joy of Encouragement


What is joy?  Do you feel joy?  Isn't it odd that encouraging someone doesn't take a lot except a kind word and yet people are so stingy with their encouragement.  Why do you think that is?

“When I stand before God at the end of my life, I would hope that I would not have a single bit of talent left and could say, I used everything you gave me.”


What do you regret?  Anything?  I've spent most of my life wondering what I wanted to be when I grew up and some days I still wonder that.  But then I thought that I really want to use the talents that God gave me.  Remember The Dream Giver Book?  I begin to see what Bruce Wilkinson meant by encountering my border bullies, the wasteland, and the giants.  We all have to go through obstacles to get to our dreams.  Really!  Did you think it would be that easy?  Some of the most successful people went through great obstacles.  So realize that you're in great company.

Billy Graham

“God never takes away something from your life without replacing it with something better.”


Don't we sometimes go through life thinking that the best is behind us and that there is nothing good to look forward to?  Well, sometimes you go through moments like this.  I remember watching Charles Stanley say something like why do you look to the past?  Don't you think that God is saving the best for last?  If God is saving the best for last then that is OK with me.  Don't you think?

I like quotes!  Can you tell?
