Dare to Dream


Some people only look at life through eyes that seldom gleam 
while others look beyond today as they're guided by a dream 
And the dreamers can't be sidetracked by dissenters who may laugh 
for only they alone can know how special is their path 
But dreams aren't captured easily; 
there's much work before you're through 
but the time and efforts are all worthwhile 
when the impossible comes true 
And dreams have strength in numbers 
for when a common goal is shared 
the once impossible comes true because of all who cared 
And once it's seen as reality a dream has just begun 
for magically from dreams come dreams 
And a walk becomes a run 
But with growth of course comes obstacles 
and with obstacles come fear 
but the dream that is worth dreaming 
finds its way to the dear 
And the dream continues growing 
Reaching heights before unseen 
And it's all because of the courage of the dreamers 
and their dream.

"It Couldn't Be Done" by Edgar A. Guest


Somebody said that it couldn’t be done, 
But, he with a chuckle replied 
That "maybe it couldn’t," but he would be one 
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.

So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin 
On his face. If he worried he hid it. 
He started to sing as he tackled the thing 
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.

Somebody scoffed: "Oh, you’ll never do that; 
At least no one has done it"; 
But he took off his coat and he took off his hat, 
And the first thing we knew he’d begun it.

With a lift of his chin and a bit of a grin, 
Without any doubting or quiddit, 
He started to sing as he tackled the thing 
That couldn’t be done, and he did it.

There are thousands to tell you it cannot be done,
There are thousands to prophesy failure;
There are thousands to point out to you one by one,
The dangers that wait to assail you.

But just buckle it in with a bit of a grin,
Just take off your coat and go to it;
Just start to sing as you tackle the thing
That "couldn't be done" and you'll do it.

Magic In You


Don’t ever give up on
what’s in your heart
Don’t ever let go of
What it is you believe in
Don’t ever say the road is too tough
And that it’s better to quit

Don’t ever think that you don’t matter;
Because you’re important to me
Don’t ever let anyone tell you
That you can’t follow your dreams

Don’t ever think that the world
Doesn’t need someone like you;
You’ve touched my heart and my life
Just by being who you are
And the things you do.

There’s a magic in you
That no other could possess.
A quality, a warmth, a sparkle
That will carry you through life’s tests

There’s a magic in you
That makes you special to me

Don't Count The Cost : Just go for it...


You don't need to worry about the demands of your dream, you only need to worry about what is your dream and how you are going to get it... 
If you want it just go for it.. Take it from your full heart.. You will definately get it.

Dreams : Live them...


"It's the possibility of making dream come true, keeps the life interesting".

Follow Your Dream



Follow your dream. 
Take one step at a time and don't settle for less, 
Just continue to climb. 
Follow your dream. 
If you stumble, don't stop and lose sight of your goal
Press to the top. 
For only on top can we see the whole view, 
Can we see what we've done and what we can do; 
Can we then have the vision to seek something new, 
Press on. 
Follow your dream.

Mother's Day


A man stopped at a flower shop to order some flowers to be wired to his mother who lived two hundred miles away.
As he got out of his car he noticed a young girl sitting on the curb sobbing.
He asked her what was wrong and she replied, “I wanted to buy a red rose for my mother and I don’t have enough money.”
The man smiled and said, “Come on in with me. I’ll buy you a rose.”
He bought the little girl her rose and ordered his own mother’s flowers.
As they were leaving he offered the girl a ride home. She said, “Yes, please! You can take me to my mother.”
She directed him to a cemetery, where she placed the rose on a freshly dug grave.
The man returned to the flower shop, canceled the wire order, picked up a bouquet and drove the two hundred miles to his mother’s house.
Sometimes we forgot what we really got. The world is all about people, if they are not there in our life, there is no meaning of any materialistic thing around us. So realize what you got and be with the people you must be.

Do You Make Me Proud ?


Focus on what you can do instead of being focusing what you can't. If you do so you will find the great changes inside you...

Glenn Cunningham



Glenn Cunningham’s story is, well, almost unbelievable. As an eight-year old he was caught up in an explosion in his native Kansas, which killed his older brother Floyd. His legs and feet were badly burned, and doctors recommended amputating his legs. Glenn had lost all the toes on his left foot, and the transverse arch of the foot was ravaged. The flesh on his knees and shins had been eaten away by the flames. His right leg was grossly misshapen and was now a full two inches shorter than the left leg. However, Cunningham was determined he would walk again, against the odds, and as he grew older dedicated his life to athletics. Cunningham competed in the 1932 and 1936 Olympic Games, winning medals and setting world records. At his peak, Cunningham also ran the four-minute mile, a feat that was deemed physically impossible at the time.

Cliff Young : The man who don't know what impossible means...



Cliff Young showed that age is no barrier when it comes to endurance, as he won the Sydney to Melbourne ultra-marathon in 1983 at 61 years old. Young was warned not to compete in the 875 kilometres event (544 miles) due to his age and the fact that the rest of the competitors were trained athletes, whilst he was a simple sheep farmer. However, against all the odds, Young dedicated himself to not only finishing the race but winning it also. Young used a slow pace throughout the event, trailing the leaders by some distance, but whilst the other athletes slept at night the elderly farmer continued to run and ended up victorious in a heart-warming tortoise and hare tale.

Realize Your True Colors...



We all love to be safe guarded from all the difficulties and problems that comes in our lives,. But we can't handle that safety for long, we start feeling to be burdened, chained or forced to be kept as slave inside a jail. This is because we are not made to be guarded but we want to live our dreams, no matter how difficult or tough those dreams are, we want to achieve them...
