To the special someone who wasn't afraid to dream,
You encouraged me to have dreams. No matter how big or impossible they seem. The life you lived inspired who I am today as a person, as a dreamer. I'm not afraid to believe in the unseen or the obscene. What a gift you have instilled in me. People may not understand or think I am crazy for having unrealistic hopes and aspirations, but I'm not willing to limit myself because others limit themselves. My favorite quote is: "You see things, and you say, 'Why?' But I dream things that never were, and I say, 'Why not?'" - George Bernard Shaw. This is my motto, my source of power and fuel for this life. All I can really say is thank you! Thank you for knowing no boundaries or limitations and for sharing your knowledge with me.
Love,
The Dreamer With Dreams

Thank You!
Thank You for Your entry: Here's To You!
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and after reading several times ~
I'm Honored also Humbled You took the time to pen for this contest
I do Hope You Enjoyed the Question and Answer one~
You took the prompt and brought forth much for the Mind to feast upon~
Bravo!!
When I digest words written, images come through that grab hard~
Woven Strengths: While reading Your words I kept being shown for
some reason...Anne Frank...but in a way where she Dreamed...even though
her situation was dire...Life or Death hung in the balance~I'm shown the
Strength- the Will to Make it Possible~
I'm nudged HARD to mention...
Please read her Diary again...it may shed tears but it is Important
Also shown looks like...After words: George Bernard Shaw..
After Shaw...it looks like missing a period...for You have ...This...
so it felt like a period was missing...Wanted to let You know
I encourage a period after word: Shaw...
While reading again- I am shown Princess Diana...but her with children from
what appears Africa...
I'm being nudged to mention...not to let another deflate Your balloon...
for it needs to be filled
(Metaphor) so You can hand it to a child in need-
so the child can smile ....for once
I'm shown how You can make a difference where the system failed...
but it takes time~ and Patience
You can do whatever Your Heart desires
also ascend and become the kite....a child can visualize...so he or she can know that Dreams can come true
However that is to be Interpreted
Love the direction You took with this prompt
Hopefully my comment to Your write makes sense
Powerful verse and message You have brought forth

These words grabbed and pulled~
People may not understand or think I am crazy
for having unrealistic hopes
and aspirations, but I'm not willing to limit myself
because others limit themselves.
Vivid Imagery poured in these lines...
Thank You for sharing Your Talent also Voice
also best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
Many blessings too

with much love and light~ Desire~*~
