What is the Dream?

As I sit here thinking about my life and where I want to go from here, I am definitely feeling some type of way because I know that some very tough decisions need to be made real soon. I have to search deep within myself to figure out what my dream is now. Every time I think that I know what it is, deep inside I realize that it is not. I've lost the passion and desire for many things and I am wondering if it is because they are not what I really want or am suppose to be doing; they are not the dream.

I am a woman searching for the answer. I am on a quest to answer the question, 

'What is my dream?'. 

That is the question that has been haunting me over these past couple of months now. I listen to motivational speakers, read motivational books, watch motivational programs, all about pursuing your dream. And I get that. I really do. However, that is not my quandary. Mine is discovering what the dream is. Only then can I pursue with such fervor and passion.

One thing that I do know for sure is that I want to travel and really experience the world. I want to visit all of the places that I've read about: London, Paris, Italy, Jerusalem, Spain, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Baltimore, Niagara Falls, Mt Rushmore, and many others. This is something that I know for sure that is part of the dream. Now I just need to figure out the rest.

As I mentioned, I thought that I knew what it was, but I'm now thinking that the reason I have not taken much action on it, is because it really is not the dream and my heart is just in it. I am motivated to action by what's in my heart...and to be real honest, what is also in my bank account. It will take money to travel to all of the places that I want to visit, not only to go there, but to really immerse myself in the experience the way that I really desire to. I want to enjoy the experience of each one.

So, here I sit, thinking and pondering over some things. I know that time is of the essence and that I need to figure this out sooner rather than later so that I can make some moves. Right now, I am in a place of atrophy, at least that is how I am feeling when where I really desire to be is in a place of strength; to flourish and fly. And it is up to me to come out of the place where I do not want to be and move into the place where I do.

If it is to be, then it is up to me.

Have any of you ever felt this way?
