Guest guest Posted December 27, 2009 Report Share Posted December 27, 2009 A man lay on his bed at the end of his life waiting to die...His dream came to pay his last respects and bid farewell to the man who had never used it. As it entered the room the man looked down in shame."Why did you not realise me ?" the dream asked."Because I was afraid," the man said."Afraid of what," said the dream."I was afraid I would fail.""But haven't you failed by not attempting to use me?"."Yes I did, but I always thought there would betomorrow.""You Fool!" said the dream" Did it never occur to you that there was only ever today? the moment that you are in right now? Do you think that now that death is here that you can put it off until tomorrow?"."No". said the man, a tear gently rolling down his cheek.The dream was softer now, because it knew that there were two types of pain, the pain of discipline and the pain of regret, and while discipline weighs ounces, regret weighs pounds. Then the dream leant forward to gently wipe away the tear and said, "You need only have taken the first step and I would have taken one to meet you, for the only thing that ever separated us was the belief in your mind that you couldn't have me". Then they said goodbye and they both died...---found on the Internet by an unknown author. So, before you put off living your dreams one more day, remember: there is no tomorrow, NOW is all you got. Take the step into the darkness of the unknown, out of your comfort zone, trust in your heart, follow your true guiding light, do whatever it takes, to live what your heart really really really yearns for. Remember if you can dream it, if you can desire it, not only you are capable of having it, but you are destined for it. Take the first step. And allow God, Nature, Universe, Destiny whatever you call it to reach out and help you move forward. P.S.: This story was received by me from a Spiritual Teacher on the Internet, which I am sharing with all here. The INTERNET now has a personality. YOURS! See your Homepage.
