The Beginning

There is nothing simple about leaving behind all of your plans and dreams. It is both frightening and daunting. But still a new set of dreams come with the process. They are not the same, and it will be some time before I know whether they are better or worse. Actually, I'm learning that there are no BETTER or WORSE dreams just ones I never follow. Robert Frost says it in The Road Not Taken,


"Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both...
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back..."


I can't follow both set of dreams, and even if I could, they would never be the same dreams.
So the beginning is letting go the fear of released dreams and the exalting in the joy of new ones.
