It is one thing to reach a goal or make it to a milestone in life, but it is quite another to fulfill a dream. See, my brother has been dreaming about being a pilot basically since his toddler years. He drew planes, he wrote about planes, he memorized the names of planes, he collected model planes, he hung the model planes from his bedroom ceiling, he kept his model planes and probably has his favorite ones on a shelf somewhere in his new apartment (he's married now, by the way).
His dreams are real. He can take one of those Cessnas up by himself, for himself, and sail the sky with elevators and ailerons flapping in the wind.
He dreams of sitting in the cockpit of a Boeing seven-forty-something and carrying his passengers through the sea of endless, sunshiney blue to their destination. He dreams of clicking the intercom speaker and telling his passengers, "If you look under your seats, you'll find a free pizza! ... Just kidding."
He dreams still. I so admire that.
Start your dreams, or start your dreaming. Life is short and long and fun and hard and full of possibilities to fulfill whatever you can come up with. So start.
Such an awesome week for Kody! :) Great post!
