Wishes

Never forget what you wished for as a kid. It just might come true.

I spent several days last week at Disney World while the show was in Orlando. I love Disney, I can't begin to explain it's tremendous impact on my life. My family has gone so many times. Everything about Disney is magical, that's what makes it special.

But this year, while I watched Wishes, I was struck by a realization that brought such joy. Remember those dreams you had when you were a kid? Some were completely ridiculous, some were fantastic, and some were going to come true, whether you knew it at the time or not. I probably dreamed to be a Disney prince or something when I was little...but as I got older and kept coming to Disney, I started dreaming about my future. I started wishing things about my career. This time as I watched Wishes, I realized that the dreams of a younger version of myself had come true and I had been too caught up in the drama and stress of everyday life to notice. I took a step back yesterday while watching Wishes to see that a significant dream of mind had come true.

Do I have many more dreams? Yes I do, and as dreaming leads to achieving, more dreams are born. Yet, it was refreshing and delightful to see some Disney magic in my own life.

So, here's to more dreams come true. And here's to being aware of them as they happen.
