Have A Dream

It seems the older we get, the less we dare to dream. Many people hit 40 and have a "mid-life" crisis because they feel like life has passed them by, and they're never going to do the things they dreamed about.

But you just never know.

I saw the link to this video on a friend's blog. A lot of people have probably already watched the video or heard about it. If you haven't, it's worth the 7 minutes or so of your time to see 47-year old Susan Boyle sing "I Dream The Dream" on "Britian's Got Talent." (They're not allowing embeds, so you'll have to go to YouTube to see it.)

This totally ordinary looking woman comes out on stage and it's obvious no one thinks she's going to be worth a flip.

But then she starts singing and jaws drop. Incredible.

So there she is, past that 40ish mid-life crisis time, and she's on stage living her dream. Just goes to show... never give up on your dreams. They may change, as Chrystie notes with her blog "Revising The Dream", but you should NEVER give up dreaming.

I'm not going to. How about you?
