In Between Dreams.

Again with the dreams. I think my subconscious hates me. It likes to make me think about issues in my life that should never come up at a time like this.

Dreams offer you the comfort of a world where contraints of everyday life are nonexistent. Yet getting a taste of the dream and then waking up to a different reality is harsh. My mind tells me something, but my heart lags behind. It's easy to make a decision, and difficult to invest whole-heartedly.

Matters of the heart involve all those emotions that you lack the ability to control. With certain aspects of my life, I hope that my rational decisions will eventually shape my irrational emotions. If only I had horrible nightmares instead of dreams that are too good to be true.

Smile...You're on Candid Camera!

Have you ever watched people as you walk by them?

I love it when I see someone walking alone, lost in thought and just smiling [not the crazy ones]. It makes me smile. They aren't necessarily smiling at me, but the fact that they have something in their life that makes them smile makes me happy.

Today, I caught myself doing the same thing [walking along and just smiling while lost in thought]. Lots of things have been getting better, and I feel like I am growing stronger by the day. It's a good thing to have something to smile about.
