Unfulfilled Dreams


I'm sure most of us have had dreams in our life that have not come true. I know my life has definitely taken a path I would never have expected. I am so very blessed to have my little girl. I was raised by a single mother, and we didn't have very much. It was my dream to make something of myself and to be successful. It was a big accomplishment when I graduated from college. Now my mom, at 49 years of age (yes, she had me young!), has gone back to college to complete her degree to be a R.N. I'm very proud of her for going after her dream, no matter how long she waited. I thought I'd share with you some things that I wanted to do in life that I have not fulfilled:


Become a top model (okay, I don't really have a desire to do this anymore, but I sure wanted it when I was younger).


Move to a big city.


Become a fashion designer (does making jewelry count?).


Travel to new and exciting places (slowly doing this one).




Those are just a few of the things I thought I'd do in life. I'd love to hear from all of you what your unfulfilled dreams are. I was so thrilled to hear that Lily of Tulip's Talking has a daughter that started modeling! Good for her! I hope it brings her happiness!


I have many dreams for the future both for me and for my daughter. I want her to know that she can be anything and do anything she wants. I will support her in all endeavors. As long as she's happy, that will be my most fulfilled dream!

Never stop Dreaming!
Your daughter is precious!
I laughed to remember my dreams of having 7 children and opening a home for unwed mothers or a crisis center for abused women. Hey, even at my age I can still dream that one day (omitting having more kiddies LOL) I can still persue my dreams.
Making your beautiful jewelry is a gift!
