I had a dream! Infect it was not just a dream because I was awake but yet I continued dreaming. Initially it all seemed to be so far-fetched, absurd and really inconceivable!
Even in the dream, I knew that all things will come to pass, but I was not going to let this one pass before I share it with you!
I had a dream! I dreamed of a free world - a peaceful planet where all countries flourished and all nations lived together in harmony. I dreamed of a world inhabited by free societies, free communities and free families. I dreamed of a world where You - nobody else - but You, had regained your Personal Freedom!
I had a dream! I heard You shouting through the roof until your vocal cord could not take it anymore! The words “Free At Last!” echoed through the mountains and disappeared to the eastern horizon. It was all so amazing!
I had a dream! The oil price, the rand value, the inflation and the interest rates all had no bearing whatsoever on Your life anymore. After all it was a free world. The human race had finally triumphed! What was once termed scorched earth had miraculously been converted to a garden where there were more than enough fruits for all. It was all so intriguing.
I had a dream. You said that it did not matter which political party was in power. You said it did not matter whether it was Mbeki or Zuma in the helm! It did not matter whether you came from a rich or a poor family.
I had a dream. It did not matter whether you were born from the west, middle-east or Africa – but all that mattered was that you had made your unique contribution as a service to the world at large! You had found your unique way to serve many!
I had a dream. You had finally achieved financial freedom. You owned your own private jet, properties all over the world and gave away 10% of your income to charities but miraculously got back 20%! The whole eight hundred-miles-wide-earth had suddenly shrunken into one small city for You.
I had a dream! You had finally reached your destiny – from humble beginnings – just enough food to chase the doctor off the door - to real abundance. “Not another rags to riches story, my God!” It was all just like a real dream: Einstein’s awe of compounded interest had finally caught up with your lifestyle.
I had a dream. Work for you was no longer different from your hobby, and that you were paid to do it was just a bonus. You only got involved where your passion, your talents, your values and your beliefs coincided – You had finally cracked Your Personal Purpose Code. Incredible!!!
I had a dream! No one had been left untouched by your humility and service. You appeared in the front page of all newspapers and magazines. Everyone spoke about You. You were on all radio stations, dominated the world-wide-web and featured prime time on all TV Network stations.
I had a dream. After all it was not my dream but it had always been God’s plan that you had to come to this world to regain your Personal Freedom and to Leave A Legacy!
God bless you!
PS: Just a little exercise for you:
I want you to revitalize your dreams right now. Please do not undermine your dreams, your wishes and desires - they would have never come into your mind if they were not meant to be realized.
Take your Food for Thought Note book and start writing now. Write as many dreams as possible but don’t stop until you have at least passed the magic number of fifty. I know it would be difficult in the beginning – all our minds are clouded by the well meaning words of parents, teachers and mentors.
“Money doesn’t grow on trees! Stop fooling yourself! Who are you to own your own private jet?” etc, etc. Wipe all these programs from your mind and write your own new software of possibilities.
You were created in Gods own image. Please make my dream a reality!!! |
