"Keep your heart open to dreams. For as long as there's a dream, there is
hope, and as long as there is hope, there is joy in living."

Dreams aren't realized in a make believe world, but in the here and now. Dreams become realities when we put forth the effort day after day, even when we aren't given a reason to believe. Sometimes dreams are realized, and it is only the dreamer who knows that they have occurred. Recently this happened in a few small ways for me, and I must say it is exhilarating to know I have somewhat of a secret. To others this dream realized may be not a big deal, but to me it was an untapped source of energy. The beauty of celebrating dreams coming to life within yourself is that you almost feel as though you have a secret, an inside joke if you will, that gives you an extra something special that nobody knows about. And that extra something special is an inner self-confidence.
When the dreamer realizes they can make their hopes become vividly tangible, it is an amazing fuel that, while others may not understand it, you will never lose, and it truly can push you toward heights you may have thought were only possible for other people. But the interesting thing that you begin to realize it that those "other people" were dreamers once just like you. Just add work, passion and optimism and guess what, you can be referred to as one of those "other people" some day as well.
In today's newsletter, Monday's Inspiration focused on the little things that make dreams a reality, and it caught the eye of many of readers - Little by Little, Grand Things Are Achieved. With January just barely behind us, our New Year's resolutions may just be getting off the ground, but I urge you to continue to press on. The reward and the learning that will go on throughout the process will be something you will be proud to have endured.
A grand dream for me because realized this week as my first article as a regular contributing writer for the online magazine Laura U Mag was revealed in their February/March issue released Thursday. I must thank again Karee Laing, editor of this luxury magazine, for inviting me to be a part of the Laura U team. I am truly grateful. Below is a look at the article that focuses on Luxurious Spring Style.
, I do hope you are looking ahead to the weekend with a spring in your step and a schedule that is as full or as free as you'd like. I can't tell you again how thankful I am for your subscription and readership of The Simply Luxurious Life. Knowing that there are so many people who are truly striving to life their dream life, all the while by staying true to who they are, inspires me more than you know. Have a lovely weekend, and until next week, I'll see you on the blog.
