#26 Wisdom Wednesday: Episode 1

"Dreams have only one owner at a time. That's why dreamers are lonely."
-Erma Bombeck

Being that I am a pisces with serious fantasy and dream issues this quote really sparked something within me. Bombeck didn't say much here, but it was quite strong if you ask me. It's amazing how so little can mean so much.

Realizing a dream is no easy task but when it does occur it's like an epiphany! An indescribable feeling. And yet it can also be a burden. I'm sure that my fellow dreamers out there have come to a point where their visions or dreams, whatever you would like to call them, have been overlooked or seen as futile. Have you ever had what you thought was an amazing idea and no sooner than you voiced it it was shot down? If you have then you know exactly where I'm coming from. One thing I can say though is that all in all, if you contemplate the idea, the world's greatest minds were overlooked as well.

I guess that's where I get my tagline from ("MADNESS IS GENIUS"). This is my own personal philosophy that just because something is not understood at that very moment or in the slightest bit clear...it can still be GREAT. Look at Martin Luther King, Jr. & Albert Einstein! Don't you think that at some point and time people thought that they were crazy for doing the things that they did? Einstein was even thought to be mentally retarded!!! No matter how random or crazy an idea or thought sounds in your head say it aloud. Never let anyone say that it's stupid and or not realistic...You never know what you could accomplish. Do NOT stifle your creativity for anyone!
