Because I dared to dream I have a chance to make a dream come true.
From the
single verse where everything started… from the seed that was planted… soon will be the chance to see its fruition… its realization.
True, there were times I drifted away from my calling. Somehow, it came back to haunt me… and how. And it wasn’t long before
I came back to writing poems… to
writing reflections in verses.
As I went to continue threading more lines, rhythmic or not, the old dream was inevitably awaken… the dream to share my poetry through my own book.
I thought it would always remain as that – a dream.
Because there wasn’t just a single instance that I was discouraged to pursue the dream due to a lot of factors, financial being the foremost.
Fortunately for me, my subconscious mind would not take it sitting down. They say the subconscious mind is very powerful, so we need to be careful what we put there… if only we know how.
And because I almost gave up, I tried to forget about the dream, and yet continued to write poems in my notebook. Unknowingly, I was able to place it in my subconscious mind, which has other plans.
While I was unconcerned whether the dream will come true or not, my subconscious mind conspired with the universal forces that make things happen. It took a while before it succeeded in doing so, but like what they always say, everything will come around.
Little by little, events unfolded, and I was led to the people who will help me make my dream true – from the supportive friends who kept on pushing, the naysayers who always challenged, the unfortunate events that only made me stronger, and finally to the
publishing people who agreed to accommodate my whims.
And thus now, I am still anxious, to be honest, but excited nonetheless. The
REFLECTION will come to life… a lifelong dream will finally come true….
…because I dared to dream.
