There's still time...

As we journey through life, there are a lot of dreams and goals that we set that never come to fuition. Although these hopes may not occur in the time frame that we had allotted, it does not mean that they still can not come true. I realize that not matter how delayed they may be, that I must not give up on my dreams. First and foremost because their mine. These are thoughts that came to me not from the unknown but from the Heavens. This means that there is purpose in the vision. God never puts a limit on our dreams. Those limitations are established by us. How can a Man who holds eternity be controlled by time. It is the pressure of life that we feel that causes us to move pass those things that we valued because we felt that they had lost their importance.

If there is a dream you once had, you need to redream again. Believe again. Trust again. Commit to the power of dreams for they are truly a divine image that you alone could have never created on your own.

"Dreams are thoughts with possibities, but you have to make them reality." -C. Holmes

Days Like This Make All The Difference.

We live life with many consecutive days of ill feelings, frustration, headaches, heartaches, misery, disappointment and setbacks. But when you have that one great day that brings you joy, motivation, content, excitment, inspiration and peace it makes all the difference.
Today was one of those days for me. I realized that I should not allow people to dictate my moods. I must choose to feel like this everyday. If you want to have a feeling of contentment it has to be a choice. I hardly remember the things that earlier had me so bound.
Joy will always trump sadness, happiness will always control sadness and peace will forever triumph over turmoil. Make the choice or life will consume you so there won't be a choice to make.

"If you don't take time to revel in the continuous little blessings in your life, they will be taken over by the infrequent big disasters." - C. Holmes

How deep is the darkside?

There are so many of us who have experienced pain in our lives that it tends to be buried deep in our minds and spirit like sedimentary rock that is the result of erosion from dismantled soil. As the years travel, that sediment or pain becomes compacted and solidified due to pressure, time and heat. That pain won't resurface on its own but has to sought out and dug up.
We must rediscover that pain because it is only when we find its lesson or seed will we find the beauty in its gift in order to use it to continue to find our purpose.

"If you don't acknowledge the pain, you won't be able to recognize the pleasures." C. Holmes

What about the soil?

Many times focus on the seeds that we sow into others. But sometimes we need to focus on the soil in which we sow seeds. If the soil is not prepared to receive a seed there will not be any growth. Many of us are hurting inside and are able to here the encouragement, motivation, or the wisdom of others. We need to nurture the spirit of those that we encounter and heal them with kind words and smiles. Once their hearts are healed then thier minds and spirits are prepared for growth.
