Live your dream!

Congratulations to all Americans and especially to the President elect Mr Barack Obama.

I salute your courage .It is so beautiful to see an African American elected as President of the United States. May God give you the strength to lead the nation in the right path.
As I watched the news of the results and the different reactions of people, I am particularly drawn to the tears streaming from the eyes of Jesse Jackson. I am sure he was weeping as he saw a dream come true.
What struck me most was this is a dream a man had.
He took steps towards it and today he has made history.

Live the dream-write the dream, talk the dream, walk the dream.
Write it down. It is so important to write it down.
In the next 10 years what and where do you want to be?
This is the time to write it down and begin to take steps towards it now. Enough of the self pity and regrets! Time for action.
If it is not written down, then we cannot really tell at any point in time if progress has been made. The trouble is most times we think it is too enormous and laborious and so we procrastinate the writing down of our dreams.

If Mr Barack Obama did not write his dream, take steps towards it by getting involved in politics, he would not have made history yesterday. Let this encourage us that nothing is impossible if you believe and are ready to face whatever hurdles.

Write your dream.
Talk your dream.
Walk your dream
Live your dream.

To live without a dream is just to merely exist!

Continue to flourish,
