Have you ever seen the movie, Field of Dreams?

I have seen the movie quite a few times, it is one of my husband’s favorite movies. Ray (played by Kevin Costner),  hears a voice in his Iowa cornfield that whispers, “If you build it, he will come.” Ray, interprets this message as he must build a baseball field. HE PLOWS DOWN HIS CORNFIELD, TO BUILD A BASEBALL DIAMOND. He is a FARMER. UGH… I am not sure I could do that, I’m not sure I could plow down my family’s livelihood, to go on a hunch. But you know what he did… he believed. He took a freakin’ leap of faith! The faith that lies within us to believe in… us. I have noticed, as we get older freakin’ fear outweighs freakin’ faith. It’s true, right? We have to see things {now} before we step. We have to dot the i’s, cross the t’s, and balance the books. WHY!?!

 

Adult. It’s a symptom many of us have. It’s the thing that tells us what we should do, how we should do it, and why. It’s all serious, and uptight. Don’t get me wrong, adult is good. “Adult” gets the bills paid, the kids fed, and the house in order. BUT, sometimes it dulls the magic we once held. Believing is seeing… double ugh! Nooooooo- I want to believe, I want to imagine my dreams SO HARD that they come true. I know, I know, imagining is NOT going to make dreams happen- work is. See, you thought you out adult’ed me, but I got you… I’m an adult too. 🙂

My husband and I have SO MANY dreams. We will spend late nights and early mornings talking about our dreams. There are many things we would rather do than what we have to do. There are different places we would rather be than where we are (geographically). Our dreams always include our crew, the words “party of five” have never been sweeter. My husband and I took a different path than many people our age have: we got married young, had our babies young, and now our decisions aren’t just ours, we have to consider them. And although considering them, the loves of our lives, we also cannot give up on us… and our dreams. So, we’re still dream chasing, we may take baby steps, but we see the beauty.

Right now, the beauty, is showing the babies, that dreams can be chased down no matter how big or small, or how old you are. My kids have seen me chase and achieve things, but there is still more to come. The future is ours. 🙂

There is beauty in your dreams, don’t give up!!
