Dreams - with Recovery

32 days sober:

Early this morning I got to take a final for school...and then afterward I stayed and talked with my teacher.  As I talked, I thought about my dreams.  I have several dreams that I hope to see come about in my life.

Dreams

  • Own a ranch - raise horses, give my kids a good work ethic, be around nature
  • Own a consulting business - do either financial consulting or marketing consulting in tandem with my dad's executive/business consulting business
  • Be able to donate at least 10,000 a year to charity - be financially secure enough that I can donate a large amount of money to help others
  • Learn 5 languages - Arabic, Italian, Russian, German, Spanish
 These are dreams that I am going to work towards and have come about in my life.

In reading a spiritual message this morning, one of the leaders of the LDS church said this about when he takes the sacrament (if you have any questions about this then please see mormon.org).  It gave me great hope for my life!

"I have found in that moment that God can give me what feels like a personal interview. He brings to my attention what I have done that pleases Him, my need for repentance and forgiveness, and the names and faces of people He would have me serve for Him."

This is my daily check in, and this is my hope for another 24 hours!
