I'm going to write this and for those out there who might worry about me (mom, grandma, dad...) don't. This is me talking off my chest. Its just something that has crossed my mind. DREAMS. I have always been a dreamer. For as long as I can remember I have been dreaming about life adn everything in it. Through the years is has evolved and changed and new things have come up. sometimes, my dreams break me. Sometimes I wonder why I even dream. I don't think many of my dreams have really ever came true. In fact often times they leave me disappointed. I dream about the little things and I dream about the big things. I have high expectations with most things in life. Lets face it I dream big. Even though I know that things are not always going to turn out like I dream or hope for I usually don't loosen up, I hold on tight saying it can happen. Time and time again those expectations fall short and I'm left standing there with a dream in my lap and reality hitting me in the face. I walk back home and I start the dream all over again. Sometimes I get tired of dreaming and I wish I could just be a realist. I guess right now I kinda feel that way. The funny thing is that even now in this thought of not wanting to dream or be optimistic I catch myself saying well it could happen and the dreams swell and take over. This is going to be one of my only realistic moments and the reality is I'm A Dreamer! So if you were sitting there reading this worried, like I know some of you were even though I told you not to be, I have not changed. I'm still a dreamer!

I know where you're at. I'm a dreamer too, and I've felt the disillusionment of things not being what I thought they'd be. Keep dreaming. Be open for seeing dreams answered in ways that you don't expect. Dreams come true. Wait for them. It's good to have you in San Antonio. You bring a fire and a passion that I need to be around. Keep reaching. Keep pressing in. Feel the love. Be the ball.
