Legalize Dreams

Hay Daizee Loves!

You know the things you think or dream about and then push them over into the “in another life” pile in your mind? Or the things you’ve been dreaming about for years but have a million excuses as to why you can’t do it… or can’t do it YET…

STOP DOING THAT.

We have ONE life to live. ONE. Whatever it is that you can visualize for yourself… whatever it is that scares you but excites you at the same time… whatever it is that you would do IF… whatever it is you 100% believe you can do BUT..… FORGET the limitations and excuses.

MAKE IT HAPPEN.

No more “in another life”. No more IFs. No more BUTs. No more excuses. We have to make it happen in THIS LIFE.

I will spend HOURS daydreaming about something just to turn around and act like it can’t happen. I’ll be like, “Okay, enough of that… back to reality’. LOL I act like I am not even allowed to try. Why are we conditioned to believe our wildest dreams can’t come true? Why do we feel like we aren’t allowed to make it happen? Why do we feel like the stuff that is always in our heads can’t be our reality? WHY?

When I saw the LEGALIZE DREAMS shirt in Forever 21, I HAD to get it. I was like “YESSSS!!! LEGALIZE DREAMS!!!” because I am so tired of feeling like I am not allowed to dream… like I need permission to dream big and make MY dreams MY reality. Like it is ILLEGAL to be a dreamer and to desire things and a lifestyle that are not the “norm”. #MillennialMeg I am tired of other people feeling that way too. Seriously, ONE LIFE and it is what YOU make it.

IT IS LEGAL AND YOU DO NOT NEED PERMISSION

So, I am writing today to let you know and to remind myself that we are ALLOWED to not only dream… but to bring ALL of our dreams to life. It’s not illegal, wrong, crazy, or dumb to DREAM. We do not need ANYONE’s permission. Not our parents’. Not our siblings’. Not our friends’. Not our boyfriends/girlfriends’. Not our church families’. I don’t care who it is. WE DO NOT NEED ANYONE’S PERMISSION to dream or to chase our dreams.

If it has the power to keep a hold on your mind… keep you up at night… and you can actually visualize it for yourself… DO NOT IGNORE IT. That visualize piece is CRUCIAL y’ all! If you can see it… vividly paint that picture in your mind… it’s YOURS. It’s YOURS to keep dreaming about. It’s YOURS to plan and plot. #PlottingInPink It’s YOURS to ultimately bring to life.  

I HOPE YOUR DREAMS HAUNT YOU

I’m at a point to where if I catch myself feeling like I am not “allowed” and start pushing things over into the “in another life” pile in my mind… I WRITE IT DOWN to make it real (that’s the first step). Because HONESTLY… if I don’t make it happen… who will? We can’t let our dreams die. We have to give them life. I sincerely hope and pray that my dreams continue to haunt me and keep me up at night until I start doing something about bringing them to life. But, I don’t want just my dreams to haunt me. I want your dreams to haunt you too! I want you to feel that uncomfortableness because you know you’re supposed to BLOOM UP and start doing something about all of the great things you are COMPLETELY ALLOWED to dream about for YOURSELF and loved ones.  

Thanks for reading!

Love ALWAYS,
