Hopes & Dreams

HOPES/DREAMS

My personal experience my journey has led me to an understanding beyond what I ever thought was possible. Hopes and dreams were not something that I allowed to follow in or out of my thought process. Survival, now that was a term that I used daily to convince myself that somehow that was all that I deserved from the world. Through abuse and a family fraught full of alcohol and drug addiction I was certain that I must have been passed over for experiencing a life that even had the glimmer of a thing called hope. To dream was pure nonsense. To dream was a waste of time. To dream would only lead to further heartache. Today, faith, hope and dreams are the light that you can clearly see in the eyes of a woman that finally recognizes she is life, and she is living not existing for the pure sake of existence.
