I’m not usually one for dreams. I have an imagination, and I have goals, but I’m too grounded for dreams. At least, until recently. Somehow rational Michy hasn’t been able to squash her own dreams lately. In fact, I’ve come up with some doozies that not too long ago I would have instantly dismissed because they are impossible. But I’m not complaining! In fact, I’m excited about this new ability I have to dream impossible dreams and work towards exciting goals.

So here’s the story. Hubby and I were driving, and I was looking out the window, thinking about our future. How great would it be to one day open up a store, like we’ve talked of doing? And then I saw it. The perfect land. Near the developed highway, just outside of town, along the side where an access road already exists, was a big chunk of land just waiting to be developed. I told Hubby that I want it. I want that land. I described to him that I wanted to build a store, but behind it would be our house. It would be attached, but you wouldn’t be able to access the house from the store. The house entrance would be in the back, and it would look just like a normal house. And the store would just look like a normal store front, with no hint of the house in the back. Perfect!

Realistic? Who cares?

It’s a dream.

One day, though, I do want to own a piece of land like that.

What about you? Do you have any impossible dreams that you are trying to make work?
