Today we celebrate Make Your Dreams Come True Day and today is the perfect day to do just that. This day is to encourage every person to make their dreams come true.
Ancient people often believed that dreams were messages for a higher sourse. In fact, the Ancient Egyptians believed this so much they actually induced dreams to receive more messages. They would lie on special dream beds in the hopes that a dream would give them advice, comfort, or even healing. Ancient Sumerians, Babylonians, and various others keep records of religious texts featuring the interpretations of various dreams.
The other kind of dreams, highlighting our hopes and wishes are sometimes called daydreams, although this umbrella is very large. Dictionaries mention daydreams as being fantasies of hope, dreams, and thoughts coming to life and experienced while awake, although in our heads. Multiple famous people across the ages have created masterpieces and new ideas while daydreaming.
We need dreams and wishes to aspire to. Some dreams even inspires us and make our lives better.
To celebrate today, work towards achieving your dreams. We owe it to ourselves to make something of our dreams instead of simply keeping it in the back of our minds.
If you cannot see the bright side, polish the dull side
THOUGHT FOR TODAY
A dream doesn’t become reality through magic, it takes sweat, determination and hard work.
Colin Powell
I have to say that a lot of my dreams have come true. I dreamed of being married and having a large family. I even managed to live in my dream house at one time. It had everything I’d ever dreamed of.
I dreamed of some day not having to go to work and then my dream came true when I retired. I still have a few dreams left and hope to make them come true also.
They say if you believe in it enough, you can make it happen. I believe in my dreams and want to see them come true.
This vacation I’ve been on, has been like a dream come true for me. I was so wishing for some sunshine and warmer days. I’m still dreaming of a day when my children will all come together like we were when they were young at home. We were such a happy family. I treasure those days more than anyone knows.
It seems impossible these days for that to happen, I only hope it’s not when they gather for my funeral. I’d like to be there when it happens.
It’s also Friday the 13th and for some that means bad luck, but every Friday to me means a Good Friday. I guess that’s because when I worked, it meant the weekend was coming ! Every Friday was something to aim for and enjoy!
I hope you all have a FANTASTIC Friday!
COUNTING MY GIFTS
All our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.
Walt Disney

Our family has grown more thn we ever thought, I cannot imagine the size of yours. Yes we have memories of those happy together times and of course DREAMS of having them again. But like you we hope it isn't at our funerals. Good thoughts and love to hear of your family & see the pictures.
Sherry & jack thinking of you!
What's that song from Cinderella, 'A dream is a wish your heart makes'?
You certainly enjoyed a blessed life making dreams come true ... and who knows what joys are waiting to be discovered!
On a much smaller scale, I'm working to make a dream come true in April when I get to visit blog friends in Florida.
Make Your Dreams Come True Day - so I was reading your posts - are you talking about dreams at night or daydreaming?
