Nuggets of Wisdom

If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.

A Dreamy Agenda


If I could just dance my life away
And wake each morn to a Springtime day;
If I could just dream as I rest by a stream
And listen the while to the birds as they sing;
And if I could just play and have fun with a dare
Forget about work it's schedules and cares;
If I could just love and learn to be loved
Then I would speak of God's grace from above.

I'd ride the wings of the wind in my dreams
And leave the real world of fading things;
I'd imagine my life without pain nor sorrow
I'd create in my dreams a perfect tomorrow.
I'd remember the footprints that I saw in the sand
As I thought I was alone yet held God's Hand.

But I wake from the whisper of the dreamy night
As the yet still quiet awaits the day's plight
I must dream of tomorrow and challenge today
With "a dreamy agenda" that gets in my way.
