And in the Midst of All This Chaos I Awoke

How many times have we put off chasing that dream because it is the wrong time, because it isn’t ‘sensible’, because it is just ‘a dream’?

I have a lot of regrets, some big, some small, but in the midst of all this chaos I awoke. We really do only have one life, so why throw it away on our fears when we could grab hold of our dreams? I have now come to realise the only obstacle in my dream was me. Fear, uncertainty and more than a little self-doubt and denial plagued my mind and clouded my judgement time and time again. I wanted to fly but I was afraid I would fall.

Well, I don’t want to be afraid anymore. I want to believe I can fly. I want to believe my dream can take flight.

It can.

I will gather my faith and sharpen my spirit, and soar like a bird in the sky, and though the wind may blow me off course, I will always find my way home.

So goodnight dear world. May you find your dream too, in the light of a new dawn.
