What's your greatest dream?

This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for August 05, 2007:
My greatest dream is to be as close to everything that Jesus wants me to be as is humanly possible--and I know that I fall way short! But I also know that He loves me, anyway!
On a less lofty level, I'm going to tell you about a dream that is coming true for me bigtime this year--one I *totally* believe is Jesus-approved--in fact, an answer to prayers both spoken and unspoken!
At the first of the year, we all begin to think about what we would like to accomplish with the clean slate of a new year ahead.
Like most plus-sized people, I naturally wanted to lose some weight.
There were other areas of self-improvement involved as well--a biggie being to make my surroundings more organized, because they had become unorganized to a point that was even ridiculous and unacceptable for me!
But the BIG dream that I had was to really get a dream team going that would join with me to extend helping hands to people who were falling through society's cracks.
I didn't have any specifics in mind--just a kind of keeping all six senses open to what was out there.
THEN the dream came true in a greater way that I ever realized it would!
It all began over on a site called Duno when I took another poster up on his request to check out his website. At the time, I thought that I was going to visit a website designed by a teen or college-age man that would have as its main focus getting into some kind of program (or even more than one program) to earn money online. I believed that he probably had some kind of creative twist to it of also having videos both about the money-making programs and about other interests.
However, I wasn't prepared for what I found--which was an earlier version of this website!
I also knew right away that, in the creator of this website, I'd found a very important member of my dream team--and the rest is history-still-in-the-making!
He shared a special dream with me, and that dream has quickly become a wonderful reality, as one can see by going here!
This blog tells our ongoing story!
Could this dream become any greater than it is right now? I hope it does, because the dream will only have come entirely true the day that every teen and child is being given visibility and vision instead of falling through the cracks of society. We're definitely taking things in the right direction--and I hope that you'll join us!
There's something else that isn't required to be a part of this dream in order to keep it beautiful and alive for me, but it's just a little wishful thinking on my part.
I hope that the day will come when the following song will be sung in celebration of my beautiful friend and me...
