Online express delivery on dreams?
I was just reading a book about slowing down and giving your dreams some space to breathe. Hmm, there might be something about that. We are in such a hurry to reach our goals, dreams, lists… maybe we´re not used to waiting? If we need something we just get it, if we don´t have the money we pay with credit card or borrow money from the bank. Easy solution! We can always just order online.
What´s going to happen if we just wait untill our dreams are ready to be fulfilled? Will somebody take our dreams from us, will they vanish in to thin air, will they run away? I have no idea. But I suspect from earlier experience that the dreams will somehow be fulfilled if we don´t suffocate them, hold them to tight, just trust them to come in the right time.
Yeah, all of this is well and good, but sometimes it´s hard to wait, hard to not know what´s going to happen. In our times with internet and all connections happening so fast, it´s even harder to wait. We´re so used to things happening in the blink of a sms or twitter second.
I remember when I lived in London, one of my friends came from Norway to visit. She was wondering why everything was moving so fast, she just wasn´t used to it, she almost felt a little bit sick. I know the feeling, London was moving to fast for me, or maybe I was moving to fast for me?
Maybe, just maybe, when it comes to dreams, they can´t always be ordered online with express delivery?

I needed to hear this today. Somehow, this post ended up in my spam! Thanks for reminding me to trust in the inevitable goodness that is to come

Oh that makes me so happy Judy! Hope future posts can inspire and stay out of the spam;-)
All good questions, Anne!
I applaud you for getting out of London – I found it very claustrophobic – my dream was to escape to the coast. It took 11 years but “everything comes to those who wait”, or so the saying goes !
I’m so happy too for getting out of London, good for shopping but not for living;-) now the beach is 5 min away…
…so well said, and yes, I agree!!!

[BTW love the title!!!!
Thank you Marina, I guess we have to be patient and keep dreaming;-)
Oh, Anne – how inspiring! It is so true. I’ve watched our roses and hydrangea all summer wondering when they would bloom. Other people’s bloomed. Why haven’t ours? You can’t force nature to blossom before she’s ready and we can’t force ourselves either. It is hard to wait, though. I just have to believe that when all the parts and pieces are in place it will feel like a miracle.
I’m not good at waiting, but I think I have to be… So… Trying;-) love to you and the flowers Patricia:-)
I cannot add more to what you wrote…just right…:)
Ha ha, so we are on the same wave lenght…;-)
Oh yes…I would be the king of slowing down…and using credit card…but much less now…learn my lesson…:)) but I still need to work on both….
I hear you, I am planning on slowing down this weekend… again;-)
I would like 5 days week-end and 2 days week…my friends often says that I’m always at ‘contre-sens’…trying to think about a translation, I guess it would be like going counter current, or something like that..
I’ve heard something similar;-)
