Sam - "Can you give me a dream?"


Sam wanted a dream.. but I had no idea what to come up with.

I'll say a word, and you give me an idea. "Moon."

Sam - Moon makes me think of night, I'm scared of the night. Give me a dream about Disneyland.

One night at Disneyland a boy...

Sam - Make sure it's not about me!

Ok.. One night at Disneyland Bobby was scared. Even though he was in the happiest place on earth, he wanted to go home now that it was dark. But his mom had picked out a great spot to what the fireworks.
In the sky, he looked up at the moon and shivered. He was scared of all the things he could not see! He kept looking around at shadows and noises. BOOM! What was that? A monster?

A flash of light soared through the air. The sparks of gold bloomed above the moon. The Disney fireworks had begun! Bobby watched in awe as light filled the sky with magic and wonder. He leaned over and whispered to his mom... I'm not afraid, let's stay a little longer.

Sam - He wasn't afraid anymore?

No, he learned that the beauty of light shows brightest when you're in the dark. The moon, the stars.. and Disney fireworks!

Don't you need to close a tab?


How can I stay focused on the things that matter the most when I have so many damn tabs open? I have got to learn to shut down the ones that don't directly influence my life, now and future goals.

I know there are others like I who have this Ni way of thinking, looking for patterns in everything. Some do this analytically, others like I are more abstract viewing the world through relationships. Regardless, if we stretch ourselves too thin, we become farsighted and can't focus on what's right in front of us.

For me eeekk.. I guess I can close.... hmmmm? Ummmm wow, this is harder than I thought! Too many important things keeping my attention. Guess I'll have to make sure my vision says 20/20!

So want a beautiful web!


This morning watching a spider build its web, I thought about how easy that spider has it. Nothing in it's way to create the perfect web. Its whole life is dependent on building the perfect home. I too feel this need to make things organized and perfected, but rain, wind, and every other element I can think of keeps pulling at my threads. Will keep at it.. someday I will feel the peace sitting in the middle of my lovely web!

October is Select Mutism Awarness month. When something means a lot to me, I shout it to the world! Learn about it, talk about it! Don't stick you head in the sand.. BTDT doesn't work. I've done a lot of work, and have been published. For this I am proud, for every child should be heard!
