Dreams of the Heart

Every day, children's hearts are being crushed by parents who tell their child, "you will never be a singer, dancer, or artist." Often words aren't even exchanged between the parent and the child, but a discouraging look, or disgust at the child is communicated through the adult's body language.

As adults we have often become numb to the sensitivity of a child, especially how vulnerable a child's heart is when it comes to its' dreams. When a parent or influential adult belittles or criticizes a child's talent, dream, or desire, the damage can be life altering.

The main cause of why one will stifle another's dreams is because they are not living their dream. The longer you have lived disconnected from your own heart's dreams, the greater the accumulation of sadness, frustration, and hopelessness that you amass and collect in your heart and mind.

When a child expresses joy, passion, and excitement, the antonym's to your emotional connection with your personal dream's, it creates the unconscious response and need to shut down the child's enthusiasm for its' dreams.

Dreams never die, they can be awakened any time one choses. What is something you have been putting off for a long time that you have always dreamed of doing?

I have put off completing a book for years and years. I had what I believed to be really good reasons for not completing the book, and I was more than happy to tell anyone that would listen, what those reasons were. Funny thing and a real blessing was no one seemed to be too impressed with my reasons!

But I always imagined the joy of writing the last page, the excitement of having it published, and the passion I will have for promoting the book, but I lacked the commitment of taking the dream and turning it into a reality.

Then my enlightening moment hit me, "stop living in the ignorance of your unfounded reasons." It was a divine intervention from the almighty showing up as my partner Crystal! What she was telling me was,"you have all the ability you will ever need, just start writing and don't stop."

The truth for me at that moment, I was worn out from living in the shadows cast from the ignorance of my unfounded reasons!

At any given moment you have the ability to step out of the shadows of unfulfilled dreams and step into the light of your heart's dreams. They have been held safely for you in the depth of your loving heart!  Embrace your dreams with joy, passion, and excitement.

Waiting in your dreams is a source of unparalleled passion containing the ability to accomplish and fulfill your dreams. When you draw upon this energy, every dream becomes possible.

Affirmation:

I embrace enthusiastically and passionately my past, present,
and future dreams, with the knowledge that I posses the ability
to fulfill each and every dream I chose too.

In Love and Peace,
David Allen Jones
