~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

All people dream, but not equally.

Those who dream by night

in the dusty recesses of their mind

wake in the day to find that it was vanity.

But the dreamers of the day

are dangerous people,

for they may act their dream with open eyes

to make it possible.

T. E. Lawrence (1888-1935)

If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream. – Martin Luther King Jr.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It’s the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance.
It’s the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance.
It’s the one who won’t be taken,
who cannot seem to give,
and the soul afraid of dyin’
that never learns to live. –Amanda McBrooom

Dream dreams

For if dreams die

Life is a broken-winged bird

That cannot fly.

(This is one of my life’s mantras. I memorized it as a kid. Does anyone know the author?)

Where there is no vision

The people perish.

Your vision will become clear only when you look into your heart. Who looks outside, dreams. Who looks inside, awakens.

Fantasy Lyrics:
maurice white, eddie delbarrio & verdine white

Every man has a place, in his heart there’s a space,
And the world can’t erase his fantasies
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii
All your dreams will come true, right away

And we will live together, until the twelfth of never
Our voices will ring forever, as one

Every thought is a dream, rushing by in a stream,
Bringing life to our kingdom of doing
Take a ride in the sky, on our ship fantasii
All your dreams will come true, miles away

Our voices will ring together until the twelfth of never,
We all, will live forever, as one

Come see victory, in the land called fantasy
Loving life, a new decree,
Bring your mind to everlasting liberty

Our minds will explore together, old worlds, we conquer, forever
We then, will expand love together, as one

Come to see, victory in a land called fantasy,
Loving life, for you and me, to behold, to your soul is ecstasy
You will find, other kind, that has been in search for you,
Many lives has brought you to
Recognize it’s your life, now in review
And as you stay for the play, fantasy, has in store for you,
A glowing light will see you through

It’s your day, shining day, all your dreams come true
As you glide, in your stride with the wind, as you fly away
Give a smile, from your lips, and say
I am free, yes I’m free, now I’m on my way
