Hold On Tight To Your Dreams…

I dream of going to Tahiti

I lead a busy life, with lots of people around. When I get overwhelmed, I always think of going away to Tahiti, where I can sit alone, reading a book under a palm tree and be anonymous.

I want to finish my book

There never seems to be free time for me to concentrate on a book I’m writing. I want to find ample time and a quiet space to do that.

I dream of a peaceful Afghanistan

I’ve worked on educational programs in Afghanistan for the past 8 years. Peace seems to elude this country, yet I know it can happen.

I want all my kids to never lose their dreams

My kids are the young men and women of Afghanistan I’ve worked with. They have many challenges in their lives and it’s easy to lose hope. I don’t want them to ever give up or lose that hope for a better future.

Dreams are…The light in our eyes,

The joy in our hearts,

The fire in our souls,

The one thing no one can take away from us

DreamsHold fast to dreamsFor if dreams dieLife is a broken-winged birdThat cannot fly.Hold fast to dreamsFor when dreams goLife is a barren fieldFrozen with snow.

Langston Hughes
