What would you do if you had the time?
What would make you feel sublime?
Go ahead with haste
And take a leap of faith
Release resolutions
That’s only thought pollution
Take the time to dream
Then let your dreams ride on a moon beam
You’re not very far away
So just dream and say:
“My gifts and strengths will now appear
So I can run as easily as a deer”
Make your gifts work for you
And share with others too
Let your passions and dreams
Positively expand into multiple streams
Let yourself unwind
And become entwined
In your unique dreams and shine
For 2009
As you approach this New Year, remember how many resolutions you made in previous years. . .and then forgot within a few weeks. We know the deeper level of creating transformation or change in life is to dream. Have a vision, set your intentions, take action and receive. 2009 seems to be a very important year in a time of change and moving forward and creating better inner and outer worlds.
Although some of the outside realities don’t look so bright, we know that to see or experience the positive light, we must clean out and move through our inner darkness so it can reflect in our outer reality. We have been moving through many difficult times: endings of relationships, changes at work and in our bodies, and the up and down of our economy. In 2008 we continued the clearing and releasing on a personal level and as a global consciousness. In this past year, despite many difficulties, there seemed to be many positives and seeds being planted for sunnier days.
When I was approached to lead a Girls Night Out visioning evening, I started thinking about how important it is to really dream, to have a vision and a passion about what you want for yourself and your life. As you dream, you naturally incorporate your gifts, strengths, and passions into your dreams. (Who would dream about something they didn’t like?) When you dream you don’t stop yourself in the middle of your dream and say “How can I do this?” If you stop yourself the dream ends so, when you dream…… just dream.
Keep a journal and jot down your dreams, visions and passions so you’re ready for the next step to create your vision for 2009. I love dreaming, visualizing and experiencing the joy and happiness of my vision. The more I do this the more my vision expands and more details appear, paving the path for the next step.
So, this first week in January dream with the intention of being the person of your dreams living your passions as you move into the year 2009 for a brighter and lighter new brighter future.
** This article is the first in a four-week series on creating your visions, dreams and actions for 2009.

Happy New Year Bonnie and lovely ones on the Serenity Pathway!
I love this article and am kind of giddy to report “I’m already on it!” Starting even before Jan 1, I began writing the story of my new life, and I am so excited to keep this commitment to myself on a daily basis, it’s been a highlight each day! It’s fascinating that as I write what I’m dreaming, it seems like angels/guides/highest self ‘whisper’ things like “then this happens, then that happens..” and I feel like I’m just taking dictation. I love that each time they add ‘color’ it’s something bigger and more expansive…how fabulous is that!?
Wishing all of you all you wish for, and then some!
