What Does It Mean to Live Your Dream Life?

What does it mean to live your dream life?  Honestly do you know?  

I have been in pursuit of my dream ever since it came to me. As adversity followed me the dream resembled more of a nightmare.  No matter how many good things came to me doing what I loved, it was never enough.  I wanted more.  I would write a life changing book and share it with the world.  Then move on to the next book.  I never took time to rest because I was in pursuit of something greater.  I would work so hard that I would forget to eat or drink for hours.  My eye would twitch and I just kept on working.  My pursuit of the dream clouded my vision.  I lost sight of what I loved to do because I was blinded by ambitions of greater.  You see, I wanted it so bad that I was stressing myself out.  My grip was so tight that I was squeezing the love out of the dream.  What happened then is the work took over and love sat on the sidelines.  Like Peter on the fishing boat toiling all night and not catching one fish.  I doubled down on the work but was getting further from the dream in the process.  Peter had Jesus on the sidelines.  Jesus was on the shore and yelled out to Peter to cast his net on the other side.  He obeyed and caught a full net of fish.  Peter was in position but needed direction and vision to receive what he desired.  In my situation I was praying about pursuing the dream and God spoke to my heart. "You are living the dream."  Light flooded my spirit and a heaviness was lifted.  I had it all wrong.  I did not need to pursue anything.  I had all I desired living inside of me the entire time.  

Love directs us to look inside of ourselves for answers and vision.  

When you can see again you don't have to work for the dream it works for you.  You can do what you love and love is the prize.  Nothing outside of you can satisfy you.  You will always long for more.  But what is inside of you can satisfy you.  

The divine spark that caused you to dream is the same energy that will cause you to live the dream.  

Until next time.
