Make a Dream A Reality


Oftentimes, when we think of 'dreams' we think of things that more than likely won't happen. Why do we do that? Why do we belittle our dreams when we start to grow up?

I remember dreaming up my future house. I had every little thing planned out. I knew exactly what my house mat was going to look like. My kitchen was going to be white, along with my cabinets and little counter stools. All of my future ducks were in a row, named and all. My future husband is going to be tall and handsome with green eyes, obviously. I had high standards when I was younger, why am I not as passionate about them now? They're still dreams, right? I still would love to have those things.
Perhaps as we get older we tend to realize that the world is tougher than we thought it was. Even if you lose sight of your dreams for a little while, you can still achieve them.

Never doubt yourself. Invest in yourself and you will go further than you can ever imagine.

Dreams can change too. We might not want the same name for our kid that we chose when we were 9-years old! You might not want the same dream job you wanted when you were younger, maybe you do. I for sure have changed my mind about becoming an ice-cream truck driver. 
The dream you see yourself being happy and content; never change that one.


I am currently living my dream. Ever since I knew I wanted to go to Beauty School, I imagined myself driving in my car headed towards school, singing in the sun, going to do one of the things I love doing the most (which is playing with hair!). And guess what I do almost every day now?

 Before I started, I begged my mom to drive me past the school because I could not wait till my dream began. One day, I desire to have my own salon and possibly a cafe. I've had that dream for years now and I still am very passionate about it. Even though there have been a few snide remarks about my dream never becoming reality. I am still going to chase after it.

dream

noun, often attributive  \ ˈdrēm \

: a strongly desired goal or purpose


Your dream can be anything you desire it to. It doesn't matter what anyone else thinks about it. Don't let them influence your life in a negative way. You already are your worst critic.

I have a mission for you. I challenge you to pick one dream that you may already have or one that you want to create now. That dream that you just chose, I want you to chase it. Chase it until you think you may not be able to. You can do it. Don't hit the snooze button because it is tough sometimes. Wake up and chase your dream until you have it. Until it is a reality. Because, my dear friend, I believe in you.

Motivational Inspiration/ /Living Temple

"Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God." ( 1 Corinthians 10:31 ) This was ( and still is ) my mantra for a healthy lifestyle. If you've tried the New's Year Resolution of a healthy diet and failed at it miserably, you're not the only one. Everyone tries to shun the guilt of indulging ourselves over the holidays. Trying every diet out there, going as far as half-starving yourself for that perfect image that society tells you is necessary. Forget it. It's not worth it. Who's body is it anyway? It's not the world's. And it most definitely isn't your own. We were born with a living temple. God breathed life into you for His purpose. Not ours, but His. Life is a precious thing, and we take it for granted too often. Our bodies deserve to be treated as living sacrifices for God because in the Bible that's exactly what His will is for them. "I beseech you therefore, brethren

Motivational Inspiration + Book Review/ /Finding Worth

Image
I partnered up with Livy, from Crown of Beauty magazine to write a post focusing on Finding Worth. To all the girls out there who are searching to find themselves. To all the ones who are wanting to feel loved or worth something in this world. To all the daughters of the Heavenly King, this is for you.  'Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to His mercy He saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing of the Holy Spirit, whom He poured out on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Savior, that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.' ( Titus 3:5-7 ) If you are a born-again believer in Christ, then you are one of His children. Which makes you a daughter of the King of Kings, Lord of Lords. You are His heir. 'Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised .' ( Proverbs 31:30 ) &

Motivational Inspiration/ /Cast Your Care

Yesterday was one of those days when you go into the bathroom to find a quiet place to internally scream. Please tell me I'm not the only one who does this. Everything started out perfectly at dawn. Had all my ducks in a row and every bow was perfectly timed. Then bad news came and with it a multitude of mistakes and mishaps that made the workday seem to stretch. Never before in my days of working was there a day with so many errors in it. I felt like a palm tree in the midst of a hurricane, getting tossed and flipped by the oncoming storm. At one point the day met its climax and a sudden thought blew past my mind; I know the Master of the storm. What do I have to fear? I know the Master of the storm. The disciples were placed into a similar circumstance in Mark, however, their storm was literal rain and wind. Jesus was teaching parables on a boat to the many eager listeners that filled the beach. Once he was finished, he told the disciples to cross the sea o
