Dreams

What happens if you want to get somewhere but do not have a map or direction?  What are the chances of you getting there?  Very minimal.

This is why we have dreams. We all have dreams. Our creativity is in our dreams, even the ones we have when we sleep.  Dreams are one place that have no boundaries or restrictions – unlimited creativity.  This is why we can build kingdoms and empires and our dreams with no money, people or resources.  

However, our dreams are not to make us feel good but to show us possibilities.  They are to show us directions.  Our dreams are to show us which turn we need to take when we go off course.  Why?  Because we have seen where we are headed.  We have seen the destination.

All we need to do is to write that dream down.  And it becomes a goal!

About The Author

Zoe

Zoe met Eze (Chuck) in the 14th year of what turned out to be an 18 year ‘journey’ with mental illness. They got married less than a year of meeting with Zoe fully knowing Chuck had a diagnosis of mental illness. In the 18th year, Chuck defied the odds of mental illness. A consultant psychiatrist signed him off the mental health system with a bill of NO MENTAL ILLNESS. The consultant was so amazed by Chuck’s astonishing recovery that he even questioned how Chuck was diagnosed with mental illness all those years before, in the first place! Today Chuck is free from medication, its dependency and hospitalizations. Zoe’s award nominated book, DEFYING THE ODDS, chronicles the highs and ‘lows’ of this journey. Zoe, often writing from the standpoint of a caregiver, clearly understands that mental illness does not only affect an individual challenged with the disease, but also families, marriages and society as a whole.
