How many of us (as little girls) have these whimsical wishes?
To be a gardener? To be a cow girl? To be a flower arranger? To do something that felt grand? Maybe it was to work in an orphanage when you grew up? Or to play in a symphony? Maybe to be a doctor or nurse? Or was it to be a singer or artist?
There is something precious in us all I think ~ those of us who have been even remotely nurtured ~ that longs to give something beautiful to the world. To CREATE something beautiful to put out there ~ an extension of ourselves.
This is so noble, so right!
This is what we SHOULD be doing.
And yet
How often are we really living an authentic life? A life where we are not just stifled, going through the motions, forgetting to express ourselves. Forgetting who we really are. Weighed down by anxiety or depression or bills or sickness or expectations...the list is long.
I'll leave these photos here ~
Let these awaken something in you
Something precious and important and beautiful!
Take some time to remember your visions, your hopes, your dreams
Take some small steps towards them again

My dream was to be a ballerina dancer
