Hold fast to dreamsFor if dreams dieLife is a broken-winged birdThat cannot fly.~ Langston Hughes ~
My qoute comes from Langston Hughes who was a poet in yesterdays era. I love the qoute because as we enter the true love waits ceremony at church dreams become an onquest for me. You see I was a teenage mommy who at a very young age lost all my dreams. My mother told me to get by I had to have dreams and goals or life would not be great. I made new goals and dreams and reached for them and now as I see my children graduate highschool and enter college I know that the reality of the world is still there but somehow my goals and dreams have helped my children to get through life

As life changes our dreams change. I try to think of it as dreams evolving instead of dying. I still have 1 or 2 from high school that I'm still holding out hope for :)
