I dreamed a dream ...

Few people in life “live the dream”.  A prosperous career, owning a home, a long happy marriage, a house full of kids and even more grandchildren, retirement and a dog 😉.  Many achieve some of these.  Some achieve none and few achieve it all.  Why is it that we all can’t "have it all”?  Is it due to lack of effort or bad choices or do we fall victim to our circumstances?

“Circumstances” … How devastating to have an unfavorable medical diagnosis or suffer from a debilitating injury.  Both can really affect our ability to be “happy” along life’s journey, but what if you fell victim to another persons scorn, insecurities or neurosis?  Can you still accomplish “the dream” in situations you did not create?  Remember the story of  David and Goliath?  One thing you can count on is that nothing stays the same.  Bad situations change.  Through those “circumstances” remain faithful to your integrity, keep your blinders on and continue moving forward!
