Dreams

Everyone and their grandmother has posted this. Even my pals. But I had to put it up too. This moved me to tears. Here is this woman, who by the world's standards was unimportant. She was over 40, unmarried and never been kissed. I'm betting no one ever paid much attention to her. And what they were missing! If they had bothered to look past the exterior they would have been privileged to hear that beautiful gift she has.

This woman, this child-like woman had a dream. She said she had always wanted to sing but had never been given the chance. They all laughed at her and rolled her eyes, and then she opened her mouth. They stopped laughing. She didn't given up on her dream. She wanted it and she went for it. I wish I was that brave. Just goes to show you, never, ever give up on your dreams.
