Wow ~ You've attained the dreams you had as a youngster ~ and now your dreams are going higher and higher all the time. Which is ok ~ as long as your dreams are ATTAINABLE. That's the crux of the matter. We have to be sure that we can reach them ~ that they are reasonable.

No one should even TRY to keep you from your dreams. If this is something that you've known from day 1 you've wanted to do ~ then you should do it! But you have to realize that you have other obligations first, like school and "perhaps" college. Without an education, you can't do anything in this world. Not anymore.

We've all felt like we weren't happy with ourselves at one time or another. We just got stuck in a rut. You've got to get yourself OUT of that rut, and claw your way back to the top. Maybe it's the people you're hanging with that are dragging you down. Maybe it's the season - alot of people suffer from S.A.D. (seasonal affective disorder). I have it, and I get even MORE depressed from October to April - living in michigan is rough - it's always GRAY in the winter with little sunshine. It makes a difference.

Lighten up. Even if the weather isn't perfect, get outside. Keep the lights on in your room. Go easier on yourself. You have a dream - make it happen. God bless. Hugs, Lee
