Quotes Tagged "dreams"
If you hold a candle close to you, its flame rises. And if you hold it away from you, its flame shrinks. The same way you hold a candle close to you, keep all your plans, aspirations, projects, and dreams close to you too. Do not share your plans or goals until you complete them, because as you hold your candle away from you, your goals will shrink in the eyes of others. Envy, jealousy, and resentment will put out your flame before it grows.
Several times over the years Kate would tell me how she saw Grady in her dreams. In the dream Kate would say to her, βYou can't be here, Grady, you died.β Inevitably as she said that, Grady would disappear, poof, just like that. I tried to explain to her that she needed to accept Grady into her dreams. She needed to give Grady permission to stay. Until she did, Grady would have to honor what Kate believed to be true. When Kate said, βYou canβt be here,β Grady could not stay. Thatβs the way it works. A loyal dog obeys its master, even beyond the grave.
