What a wild dilemma, how to make it to the stars on a highway slick with fear

I want the best of everything for everybody, and it will cost millions.

If you want a life. Different from your parents.

It's not only children who grow. Parents do too. As much as we watch to see what our children do with their lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours. I can't tell my children to reach for the sun. All I can do is reach for it, myself.

Better to have a big goal and reach half of it than to have no goal and reach all of it.

In order to seize the day, make goals and go after them with all your heart.

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. C. S. Lewis Would

I hope you have a dream or a vision in your heart for something greater than what you have now. Ephesians 3:20 tells us that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above and beyond all that we can hope or ask or think. If we are not thinking, hoping, or asking for anything, we are cheating ourselves.

Do you have some kind of dream or vision for your future? Are there things that you would love to see happen in the days, months, and years ahead of you? I sincerely hope so, because without goals, we are directionless and very unmotivated. You might say, "Yes, I do have a big dream." My question is, Have your words been in line with what you say you want?

Where the mind goes the person follows, so be sure that your thoughts are on what you want rather than what you don't want.

Don't give up on your dreams. Don't start thinking that it's not gonna happen just because it hasn't happened yet. Keep your hopes up!

You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. C. S. Lewis

After all, it's not every day a woman is given a kingdom of dreams.

I want more from life than that and I have more to give.

And so I invented a kingdom of dreams where I could accomplish great and daring deeds to make it happen.

Something is missing, and it's something not so easy to name as semiabsent husbands, not so easy to point to as a lack of work, or too much work, or a lack of adequate child care. It's the sense that life should have led up to more than it has. A sense that after all the hard work, for all our achievements as individuals and as a postfeminist generation, life should be better than this.

A life without goals isn't worth living.

thought how great it would be if we could

But we're all dreamers, I think.

Once I knew that I wanted to be an artist, I had made myself into one. I did not understand that wanting doesn't always lead to action. Many of the women had been raised without the sense that they could mold and shape their own lives, and so, wanting to be an artist (but without the ability to realize their wants) was, for some of them, only an idle fantasy, like wanting to go to the moon.

Each epoch dreams the one to follow.
