If you could accomplish anything in the World – anything – what would it be. When was the last time you allowed yourself a moment to dream big about your life or your future.

As a child you had dreams that were larger than life.

Your imagination could turn cardboard boxes into rocket ships on the moon and tree forts into a castle.

The innocence of your childhood placed stars in your eyes that glisten as they gaze into the future.

And then somewhere along the journey of life, you lost it. You became jaded and cynical. Those dreams you once had become suppressed and out of reach.

As a child, you had grandiose dreams and ambitions. Nothing seemed impossible and you were full of untamable hope! It is time to reclaim that hope. Now is your moment.

Throw off the robes of doubt and fear and step into your purpose. It is never too late to be the person you ought to be! You were destined for greatness. This is only the beginning.

Sometimes it feels like all our efforts are in vein, like they are a pitiful attempt to launch ourselves out of misery.

But the next time you catch yourself feeling disheartened because it seems like nothing is emerging from your hard work, remember that we do not get to plant the seeds and enjoy the fruit on the same day.

Good things take time to grow, to prosper and to bloom.

Enjoy the process as much as you think you will enjoy the fruit … because even when it seems like nothing is sprouting from the soil, those seeds are hard at work below the surface, firmly establishing their roots before they sprout into green shoots of life. 

Listen to the cry of the Earth and the Poor.
