when you're a kid, it's easy to dream.
my little dude wants to be like *Andy Schleck*. he was second in the tour de france last year. he is an amazing biking machine, especially in the mountains.
in little dude's mind, he really thinks his dreams can be attained.
i still have dreams, too. i find it easier to give up on mine, however. there are many reasons to give up on dreams, many of them are legitimate. unfortunately, i think i think i give up too easily.
little dude still believes he has options. to be a bike racer, football player, hockey goalie, race car driver or to be just like his daddy.
sometimes i forget there are options...different ways to fulfill dreams that seem elusive. while the realization of those dreams may not be exactly as I had pictured in my mind, they may be better, richer, or deeper.
options. creativity. resources.
my kids don't give up easily when they want something. they go at it from many angles, ask for help, persist, hammer away...
so that some day...
this...
may be one of these...
