Climbing the Mountain

     I had this dream sometime ago, that I am driving with my grandmother in the car, to somewhere I need to get to. However, for the last part of getting there, my grandma stops and parks her car. We are at the mountains, where people are normally walking up and down on the mountain, completing their daily task. We cannot drive the rest of the way, I have to walk up the mountain like everyone else. I immediately feel intimidated by the height of the mountain, and I know that my body is quite flimsy, I will fall and get hurt. There are people, just like me, that are coming to climb the mountain, they do it almost like nothing, but normally. I instantly feel bad. I just decide to sit and "wait". However, I notice that the people that started ahead of me are already a bit far and I just think "I could have been there if I had just done what I was supposed to, but instead you are just still sitting here, doing nothing."


     I believe dreams, for some people are spiritual connections to the self, and that around the self. When I awoke from this dream, I knew what it instantly meant.I need to get up and do what I am supposed to do, otherwise, no one can really do it for me. I will just sit there and accomplish absolutely nothing.

     It's so hard for me to stay true to this kind of daily dedication. I still have so much I have to do and it's a bit overwhelming at times. Everyday, I must learn to climb this mountain. Starting is always the hardest part of the puzzle for me. However, taking that first step is crucial to finishing any goal.

     I have goals I want to accomplish, but I think it's time that I start trying take small steps, before I run. I will try my best to live out a day in which I have to accomplish:

My Summer Schedule:

• Daily Clean Up: I usually only clean once a week. These task would include putting things back where they belong, dusting, and wiping things down.
• Daily Contemplation: I want to use this blog as means to contemplate somewhat, aside from personal contemplation. 
• Daily Walks/ Exercise: I walk almost every other day. However, these walks would be more beneficial for others too...
• Daily Study/Read: I want to keep my mind engaged with topics of my interest that I like to read.
• Daily Writing: I want to practice my poetry or the art of writing, everyday.
• Daily Prayer: Hopes, thanks, and wishes for others are made. 
• Free Time: self explanatory  ...

I want to start with proving that I can accomplish this schedule religiously, seeing that I wish to find a religious lifestyle dedicated to my spirituality. With every small step, I will be able to climb that mountain. So, from tomorrow on out, I will start to walk. ;)
