The dreams dreamers dream about.
This post was prompted by very recent events and the frustrations they begat.
There are those that don’t believe, we’ll call them “non-believers,” that I get to live my dreams because I am a married woman. The non-believers say, that I could never be an independent woman, because I have to answer to “the man.” What they don’t realize is I am more independent than I’ve ever been. These same non-believers say that they don’t need “a man,” they are perfectly fine on their own, yet these non-believers try, and fail, to fall in love with the wrong men. They don’t know what love is. Their dreams, the things they dream about, are what give them wings to fly, to soar even, past all those who would dare to stand in their way. I dare not judge the non-believers, for I know that I was once in their shoes, and felt then what they feel now. The thing about dreams is that they come and go, they grow and expand, and when the dreams are achieved and realized, new ones take their place. I’ve dreamed big dreams, yet my dreams have always involved the only person who could make all of my dreams come true:
He is my dream, the day I said yes.
The dream I dreamt about all life long.
The dreamers say, I couldn’t dream, with that one who should come along.
What are the dreams dreamers dream about?
He is my dream, the day I said yes.
As we walk side by side, my dreams come alive.
The dreamers say, those dreams are a waste of time.
What are the dreams dreamers dream about?
Now my dream has come true.
The dreams dreamers dream are my reality they see,
and better than the dreams they dreamt before.
Very well said. I agree with you 100%! Yes, I was a “non-believer” before. Ironically, I was married was a “non-believer.” But I never stopped dreaming that my marriage could be all that I believed it could. Nevertheless, God’s plans are always bigger than ours. I got divorced and became a “non-believer.” This time, hard core, to the bones, “I don’t need a man.”
To my dismay, God knew who I needed and why. He [my husband now] has unlocked all my dreams and without him I would not be able to live my dreams and create new ones that involve he and I.
