I love this new era of
publishing and communication where anyone can participate no matter how old, where
they live, or their message.
So, I asked Mariam if she
would like to write a guest blog post for me.
A person like Mariam has a lot of wisdom to share with all of us. And meeting Mariam and reading her wonderful
essay I was inspired to open my blog to other writers who had something to
share.
You can read how
to submit here. Mariam certainly had
an impact on me and I hope she will have the same effect on you.
But for now, enjoy Mariam’s
wonderful post and do support and encourage her by visiting her new blog and I
would recommend buying her book The Alternate
Safe World of Sanctuary. Its
received some rave reviews and at currently 99 cents for an e-copy its amazing
value for you to be able to connect with this wonderful woman.
Mariam you have certainly
inspired me. Thank you.
Where is your dream? by Mariam Cheshire
“I have a dream.” These words are now building blocks in our
history.
We hear the power of Martin
Luther King’s voice and another small voice speaks inside of each of us. “Do I have a dream?”
The answer comes clear and true.
You might be going from the
tumultuous teens into the growing years of the twenties. How does your dream appear? Are there visions of someone to love, a bond for the future and kiddles who would
progress further than you do? Is this a time to conquer the business, the creative,
the money world? There might be hopes of
writing and travel.
Then come the thirties. Maybe
the 20’s dreamer is too busy to think beyond what needs to be done today. When children are in the picture the Friday
night football games could take precedence over far away rainbows. Goals could be tucked away in the desk drawer.
Today’s schedule keeps the busy thirty-some person from pulling it out to
check. Where is the dream?
When the forties come over the horizon
there comes a skid, a halt and a look around.
Yes, the green lights flash on the road ahead You can ask “Am I on track?”

My dream of grade school years
was pushed from start to stop, from give-up to a steady gallop. Despite getting mired down in mud from time
to time, my dream came out of its cocoon.
At 86 I am flapping my wings wanting to fly! When we follow our dream it becomes part of
our being and turns into Reality as we grow with it.

FOLLOW YOUR DREAM!
With love, I sign as mother,
step-mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin, friend,
correspondent and writer.

ABOUT MARIAM

Travel became a Way of Life flying standby to
countries around the world. With a
backpack carrying only the necessities she landed in the city of her choice and
found a hostel or B&B with the bathroom down the hall.
Mariam speaks of a wonderful life – writing -
seeking family history in genealogy libraries - flying Cubs into the blue
yonder – airline flights to faraway places - photography and printing in her
own darkroom - painting oil landscapes with her mother - playing with rocks for
one-of-a-kind necklaces - and always beautiful love.
