Chasing Dreams.
“If your dreams don’t scare you, they are not big enough.” – Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
I think it’s safe to say that I am…scared.
It’s not your “Oh my gosh! Where’s my pillow? Where’s my blanket?” type of scared though. But I never would have thought that being a Dream-chaser would bring me this far and me being scared is aimed at the huge potential and opportunities the dreams carry inside of them.
Dare to Dream, Dare to Chase, Dare to Capture. That way you can say that you’ve at least tried (not sure if this is a quote, if not…I said it first!).
So yes, my dreams scare the shit out of me, but I will not hide from them.
I want to be able to say “I’ve tried”

I love this, TJ!
Thanks so much!! I figured to just keep this column short and let the image do the work haha
Keep on dreaming TJ. As the saying goes, people who don’t dream don’t have much….least I think that’s a saying, i’m sure I heard it somewhere.
*grabs a pillow and falls asleep* I think it’s a saying indeed…not soooo sure either, but it makes sense. You can create your own saying
And how can one not point to someone like Ellen Johnson Sirleaf for inspiration? TJ, That is a great quote, great illustration, and great commentary. Good for you!
I adore that quote! I stumbled upon it and it fitted that lady perfectly!! Thanks so much, Dean
Awwww you wrote shit!
Love this, in illustration and word like form
Hahahahaha! Claire, too funny! I was secretly waiting if someone would point it out
I wrote it in one go and hit published and then I though…’Oh. I said shit…’ hehe. Thank you!!!
You said a bad word! I love it
My dreams scare me too. Some people are afraid of failure, but I’m afraid of success. I’m worried I’ll get there and be like, “Uh, now what?”
You’ve got so many wonderful things ahead of you, TJ. Keep on dreaming!
Hahaha too funny
Yes, I can curse…if I have to hehe.
Thank you and I’ve exactly that. I set the bar high for myself, so I wonder if I make it what will happen next? But you know…we just have to keep on dreaming (sings a song) and we will cross that bridge once we get there ^_^
