The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

I was reading the blog of Girl Meets NYC (www.girlmeetsnyc.blogspot.com), and she has incredible writing. Her thoughts provoked some of my own, and I thought I'd share them with y'all.

People are generally practical. Most people that I know have back-up plans for most everything that they do, "just in case" something goes wrong. And, that is the sensible, practical thing to do. But no, not I. I live and I dream. I cling to my dreams and hope for the best, but I'm never surprised when I fall. I pick myself back up, lacking confidence, but still getting up nevertheless. What does this mean? Am I a practical dreamer? I believe that I am quite the dreamer, but I'm completely aware of reality.

On the other hand, I finished I Am the Messenger. It left me speechless. I don't know what to say about it on here, other than GO CHECK IT OUT. The book itself says everything that needs to be said.

Being a dreamer, I also believe that's why I enjoy reading so much. Each book is a new dream, a new world that only I can create and only I can see. It's whatever I want it to be, and there are no limits. That's the feeling that reading gives me. That's also why I enjoy writing- I want to give people a chance; an escape from reality. A chance to create their own world. Everyone deserves that chance.
