Time is inevitably going to pass and one year from today, you can find yourself in the exact same spot you're in now, you can find yourself further away from your goal or you can find yourself closer to your goal - so where do you want to be a year from now?
Ali Edwards tweeted this, and it took my breath away. It took my breath away because I've been reflecting on how last year seemed to fly by. I was also thinking that I didn't know how to define my dreams. And then I read this and thought how easy it would be to be at home on January 9, 2013 having made no progress other than passage of time.
I don't know about you, but I want to be closer to my goal. Whatever it is.

ReplyDeleteI could look at it for hours...
Would you mind if I tried to paint it?
~shakes head~
I had such plans for 2011, dreams and goals. I seem to have fallen short of most of them. It's hard not to be discouraged at my short comings . I have , however tried not to make excuses. I am not sure if it would be harder to not know where I wanted to go, or what my dreams were.
what a wonderful compliment! thank you! all i can speak to is not having a dream/plan...it makes everything gray. i'm working on figuring out what my dream is
