Dreamers of Peace

Hope.
For some there seems none. Others seem to hold on to something….Dreams. For those who dream no more and life has become a struggle, I would like you to take a moment and remind yourself that we are all the dream makers whether or not we participate. So keep dreaming your dreams of freedom and peace and walk in the light, for if you don’t, who will?

How to Achieve 'Liberty' – The Freedom to Choose the Path Our Lives Take

Cage birds accept each other but flight is what they long for.

–Tennessee Williams, Camino Real, 1953

The power to choose how to act and react to the world around us creates our reality, because we have the freedom to control our own lives. It is the choice to turn left or right, to be happy or sad, and it is always with us even at those times when we do not feel free. Its power is enormous. It can be our greatest ally or it can become our greatest enemy. By making the right choices, we can open the doors to lead a balanced life.
