How big do we allow our dreams to be? Do we limit the size of our dreams because we cannot determine how they will come about if we dream too big? We could be disappointed.
With this kind of thinking, you have already limited your greatest outcome, and your dreams keep getting smaller. I have a friend who constantly lives in past glories and it makes it very difficult to manifest in the present because all of the energy is focused in the past. You can’t make a joyous future if you can’t dream it. Only the anticipation of greater things can bring you greater things. I know this from experience.
If you dream small, you will experience small, but it does keep you safe where you can deal with little shifts in reality. What would happen if you dreamed big, expanded your beliefs beyond all limitations and declared in a voice loud and clear what you want? What if you then took action to bring your dreams to reality? What is the worst thing that can happen? You might be disappointed, but the possibility also exists that you might be directed to a greater manifestation than you ever imagined Sometimes Source, God, has a bigger, better plan than the one you are holding.
My father always told me that it does not matter if you fail; what matters is that you try. I have never been afraid of failing, per se. I will admit that it took a lot of courage for me to rappel down a mountain in my younger years, but I took a deep breath and gave it a go. I discovered I would much rather rappel down than find handholds to climb up. If you don’t make the climb you don’t get to rappel down.
So you have the opportunity to become more than you are, or you can stay stuck in the same old pattern, having the same old experiences. That just doesn’t work for me. At this point in my life my dreams are different… much more simple than when I was younger, but I still love to see where my creations will take me. Yesterday, I planted corn in my garden. Now, this may not seems like a big dream to you but if I can keep it from freezing and making it to maturity, I will be so joyful. Walls of water can protect the plants if we get one of our June freezes, but I had to get the seeds in the ground to have the plants be knee-high by the Fourth of July. This may seem like a simple dream, but it brings me great joy to see if I can do it. I envision my strawberry bed abundant and overflowing. I have to take precautions to protect all my plants from the abundant wildlife, which I love.
My challenge to you is to love your dreams, whether big or small. Support them with all your heart and you will be blessed with the magic of the unknown. Blessings, Dove
