Dream Into Reality

Everyone goes to bed at night in hopes to dream of fantasies or longing loves. Then there are always the nightmares that we wake up from and as soon as you close your eyes, you fall right back into the same place. Quite often our dreams seem so random that there is no trace behind such happenings. If our dreams seem so random, then how can we have reoccurring dreams that stay with us day in and day out. Is it some sort of sign? I am not one to believe in our dreams being signs to follow a path but after the past few nights, I am not so sure.

My dream that I have been having over and over is kind of crazy but I think it is because I have become so hooked on blogging. I start out in London every time. And I travel to the same tourist attractions London has to offer and then hope on a train for what feels like a matter of minutes. The train always makes the same stop in Paris. I have never been good at geography but I feel like that train ride would take a bit longer. I continue my way through Paris stopping at small cafes and seeing the wonders of Paris.

The whole time I am travelling throughout these two great cities, I am constantly blogging about my travels. Not only do I have an absurd amount of followers constantly reading about my journey but I am also being paid to blog about this. My career is to blog and travel. In my dream, I have a companion named Alana. She is also a blogger and YouTuber that travels with me and we write about our shared experiences together.

Now this would be an exciting profession; to write, travel, and have someone who you can share such experiences with. I got to thinking about this “dream girl” of mine. Not in a weird obsessive way. Although, in my dreams, she is pretty attractive. I just got thinking of the name. The origin of the name Alana is Old German and Hawaiian that means awakening. I do not think my destiny may lay in writing and travelling the world but I do not see any harm in dreaming big.

So rule #25: dream big. If you have a crazy dream, there is no harm in following it. Your dreams may take you on an unexpected journey that truly brings about the greatest happiness. Share your dreams and others might help you get there. And by no means, never be ashamed of your dreams because if you want it bad enough, it may become your reality.
