A Year of Dreams.

This life is full of uncertainties.  It will swirl you around until you can't take any more and then demand that you walk a straight line.

It is unbearable and exhilarating.  It is a ride that you have one chance to enjoy.  You either spend your time clinging desperate to the side, learn how to fake it, or actually find your bliss in it's dips and peaks.

We have allowed our lives to live us for far too long.  We have followed in it's wake of demands and fallen short repeatedly of what we think it wants from us.  As we pause, take stock of our yesterdays and hopes for tomorrow, the brevity of our future looms.  It will either flatten us or persuade us to push higher, farther, and deeper to our passions and longings.  This life is worth living.

I hope that you decide to take complete hold of yours.

As you are staring at your long line of resolutions, goals, or hopes for the new year, I hope that what tops your list is not lose ten pounds, get healthier, sleep more, exercise constantly, rather I wish that you would place first and foremost a desire to live fully, each, and every day.

That your goals would be to pursue your desires until they become your realities.  To not let go of your dreams based on your circumstances or your fears.  Go out there, pursue your hearts greatest wish.  It can only come true if you make it happen.

No one will ever 'discover' you, it is up to you to make yourself known.

Be your own shooting star.

Peace joy and love in this brilliant and fabulous New Year.  Here is to 2014.
