Dreams are never free

I want to paint a picture of how things could be.

Me and the love of my life our children living someplace warm, serving God, serving the Community me actually using my education to do both, building our home and various other things are all part of the picture that I imagine my life to be.

But I have learned by now that dreams are never free nor are they in my control. The problem is even though I know these things I still live a life like i can predict the future. How about you?

Girl meets boy.

Girl falls hard.

Boy doesn't even stumble.

How to prevent your heart from being broken

"To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certianly be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness. But in that casket-safe, dark, motionless, airless- it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable."
-C.S. Lewis.
