BROKEN DREAMS
by Jamie "Lady Hawk" McCullough
Hello all, Sponge here.  My secretary/assistant, Jamie, wrote this for me.  Her own
dreams have been shattered over the years, just like all of ours have at one time
or another.  I won't tell here what they are, but they are very personal for her.
However in writing this to encourage yours truly, she wrote something that I think
all of you with "broken dreams" should read.
Without further adieu, making her writing debut, Jamie McCullough.
What do you do when all your life you have a dream and you find out you have to
set it aside?  It is really hard to accept that regardless of your feelings on it, what
you want has to be put aside.  At least in some cases it works out that way.
In some cases it depends on what your dream is and if it is able to become a
reality.  Mostly you have to weigh out all of the consequences, especially with
something that could change your whole life.  But how do you rate that?  How do
you rate the importance of the decision to be made?  It is a complicated process
really but in order to
not do the wrong thing you must sit down and look at what is
best for you and everyone you truly care about.  Is it financially a possibility to
consider?  Is it something that would be worth everything you put into it?  Will it
be rewarding once you reach your final goal?
Once you weigh all of the pros and cons and feel you have reached a satisfactory
conclusion, then come up with a plan on what you want to do next.  It may even
help to talk to someone you are close to and feel you can trust.  Just know that
regardless your dream, if you want to make it a reality you can.  No matter what
the dream, if you work hard at it you can accomplish anything.

We believe in the dream,

“Lady Hawk”
