Default Inspirational Moment for Today, 2-16-05~

You know a dream is like a river, ever changing as it flows.
And a dreamer's just a vessel that must follow where it goes.
Trying to learn from what's behind you and never knowing what's in store
makes each day a constant battle just to stay between the shores.
And I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
Like a bird upon the wind, these waters are my sky.
I'll never reach my destination if I never try,
So I will sail my vessel 'til the river runs dry.
Too many times we stand aside and let the water slip away.
To what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today.
So don't you sit upon the shore and say you're satisfied.
Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tides.

-Victoria Shaw-

Yes, we've all heard the song by Garth Brooks, but, have we listened to the words without the music? They sure make sense now when we just 'read' them, and let them sink in~

So, let's sail our dreams, like the vessels we are and take each day as it comes and strive to reach our goals, no matter what my lay in store, or what may stand in front of us, we CAN do this,... we can, we have to reach out to each other, and hold each other up, we have to be each other's buoy's, sometimes when we can barely hold ourselves up, that's when we're the strongest!!!
