In my dreams I fly- unencumbered by the limitations and the pain of my physical existence; there are no boundaries- I can accomplish or become anything. I am like the eagle. I feel the wind beneath me and know that I have the power to survive. I observe all that surrounds me and take in the entire incredible splendor this world has to bestow.
In my dreams I am a child- carefree, with an innate inquisitiveness that is fulfilled by the many wonders of this world and its novelty. I am eager to attempt anything and have faith in everything- my curiosity is insatiable. There exist no worries- I have an awesome imagination. I am unconstrained by adult responsibility and anxieties. I am playful and bursting with questions and I am always a pivotal person in this world. I also love unconditionally and trust completely without a qualm.
In my dreams I am the young lover- excited by the touch of my partner. There are no thoughts of tomorrow- there are no uncertainties. I am in ecstasy, loving and being loved intensely; hungering for, and cherishing every magical moment my lover and I share together. I am elated and focused on plans for our future. I believe that everything is possible.
Come exist in the enchantment of my dreams- live each day flying, feeling to your core, the fantastic freedom- absorb each and every thing that is offered you. Be the carefree, questioning, and creative child essential in this world- affectionate and innocent without apprehension. Be the young lover, who is passionately devoted and profoundly cherished. Desire and treasure every magnificent moment- for this is the only manner of surviving in this world. Through this avid approach to being alive, I have achieved supreme satisfaction.
Come be with me, in my dreams...

outstanding write! i, too, am disabled; have osteoarthritis and walk with a forearm crutch. am always in pain; but compared to a lot of people, i am blessed; and the lord gave me a gift of writing on 9-11-01. come by my port and check out some of my work. most of what i write is fiction, and i write about mostly people who happen to have disabilities and how they manage to overcome their problems. some of the stories are sad, and some are happy; and some are angry and some are thought provoking! i mainly write fiction for children or stories about family life or living with a particular disability, as in my series, "open your minds" (all stories of people living with various types of disabilities or conditions). love, a new friend in texas, karen lynn. (((HUGS))) *god bless you!* :)
