Card Of The Week – Dream
I love the beginning of a New Year. With the turning of each calendar page comes new energy, new anticipation, new hope – can you feel it? Inside us awakens dreams we may not have dared to dream for quite some time.
What dreams do you find yourself excited about bringing to fruition this year?
It’s SO important to encourage one another in the pursuit of our dreams. Do you have a favorite quote about dreams that you’d like to motivate us with in the comments? Here are a few inspiring thoughts I’d like to share:
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Eleanor RooseveltThe world needs dreamers and the world needs doers.
But above all, the word needs dreamers who do.
Sarah Ban BreathnachNothing happens unless we first dream.
Carl Sandburg
If you’ve written about your dreams, goals, resolutions or picked One Word to guide you through the New Year, I invite you to share them with us at our special 2016 New Year Blog Hop which will be open during the entire month of January!
Have an amazing week and be sure to join us at at one or more of our weekly parties!
