“I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.”
~ Thomas Jefferson

When I read this I literally got the goose bumps. There something so true and inspiring about this quote, I just had to share it! I speak from personal experience but there was a time when I was so wrapped up in the past that I didn’t even have a clue as to what “I” really wanted for my future. Life was difficult and I kept facing the same challenges over and over again. I was so frustrated on the inside because I couldn’t break my cycle. My past was my present and that’s all there was to it.
Then one day I read a book that gave me permission to start dreaming again. Let me tell you something, once I had the permission to dream again, boy did I get creative! I also had a blast!
When we were kids we did this all the time. Yet somehow as we get older we get too wrapped up in our everyday lives to make this a priority. Dreams are absolutely the most important thing you can do for yourself. Dreams give you hope and determination for something bigger and better. I give you permission to dream and dream big! Who cares what other people think. It’s your future and you deserve nothing but the very best life has to offer!!

“Good judgment comes from experience, and often experience comes from bad judgment.”
~ Rita Mae Brown

Everytime I read this quote I LOL! How true is that statement. Man o man I have had my share of bad judgement! Haven’t we all??? Hopefully it keeps us that much wiser for the road ahead.
