Hopes and Dreams

No matter what your hopes or dreams are, do not loose site of them. Whether it be to win the lottery or to live in your dream house. If you can visualize it and believe it, it will happen. Sometimes our subconscious thoughts will not allow us to have the things that we want, so when you are visualizing and believing REACH Deep with in. Meditate to clear those negatives and replace them with positives.

Don't let anyone steal your dreams. There are negative, close minded individuals that think that their reality should be every one's reality. They love to prove you wrong and throw out some realization approach, that can really bring you down. They do not realize, that dream of yours, no matter how big or small it is, may be your only hope of keeping going. We are powered by our hopes and dreams and when you come across some one, that does not know how to step out of their box, well it can drain you. Drain you of your hopes, dreams and ambitions that fuel you to the next day.

Life is not always an easy road for everyone. And one person's tragedy may be small in comparison to someone else's. A person that has never been in the dumps or living from pay check to paycheck will not understand why a person is so upset about something that happened in their life. It may be big to them and small to the other person. The person that thinks it is small could be shallow minded and inconsiderate to the person that thinks it is big.

It doesn't hurt to follow your hopes and dreams, but be wise about it. Let's say you wanted to buy a lottery ticket one day, with the hope of winning, and then some one tells you that you are not going to win. Don't you just want to slap the crap out of them? I do not believe that buying a zillion lottery tickets a week, is a smart and wise move, because if you believe and can visualize the win, then you only need one ticket to do so.

I decided to write this because of someone's post on Facebook. I do understand his point, that "some folks" that buy lottery tickets can be annoying, and take up time, when all you want to pay for is one item. I would have been annoyed myself by the way he described what happened, but it is what he said to her, that sort of bothered me. He was trying to make a point to her, but it was taking away her hopes and dreams and it wasn't his place to do so. She was on food stamps and no I do not agree with folks that mis use government assistance. This person should only buy one ticket instead of bunches every week, that is my opinion. That is not giving up on your hopes or dreams of winning the lottery, like I said earlier, if you really believe, you only need one ticket.

He proceeded to tell her that she would not win the lottery and was not ever going to win the lottery. My thought again is; it is not his place to drain her of what may be keeping her going from day to day. Playing the lottery may be the only happiness that she gets and he just took that happiness away. I still believe that if she is down and out and needing assistance; cutting down is one of those wise things to do, but it would not be my place to tell her so.

In life, we all have to make certain decisions to survive and cut back on the things that we often enjoy. Instead of going out dancing every weekend, I now only go every once in a while. I have friends that go out to eat every Friday night, I do not go. If I do go, I eat before hand and just hang out. But I still have my hopes and dreams! I use the extra time to focus and meditate on them. It has been an awesome journey with God and because of it, he continues to open many doors for me. I believe that Great things are happening and that they will continue to happen to me!

Be wise about your hopes and dreams and never loose site of them. Cut out a photo of the dream car or house that you want and put it in a place where you can see it every day. That will help you to visualize having it.
