Bittersweet Cravings

Sometimes wanting something so much you can taste it...can be pretty hard to swallow.  The instant gratification we crave isn't always there.

That's the case for my Sweet Dream at times.  I have so much love and so much of Me that I want to put into my future Inn and Bakery - that on occasion, living that dream in a limited, idealistic way can feel unsatisfying.

Staying focused and moving forward, if only in every day ways (like cooking and entertaining) is fine and good, but without a Real Version of that Sweet Dream - some of that passion sits in my belly and begins to ache.

Every once and a while, I am satiated by some sweet morsels.  In between those times, though, I'm left hungering for more.

This is a test, though, of just how strong my Sweet Dream is.  There will be days where things will be slightly bitter to the taste...but I choose to focus on the very real Possibility of things turning out Perfectly.  That thought makes my heart skip a beat.  I get giddy like a school girl at the mere idea!

It's a feeling very few things evoke. 

I admit, I'm impatient...and I want what I want, when I want it.  That drive often proves an asset...but personally it can make you a little nuts.

So I'm choosing to let go, for now.  To live in the here and now, accepting what life has to offer.  All the while resisting the overwhelming temptation to try to control my Fate.

When my Fate knows its course, it will grab me by the hand and take me Home.

Until then, I'll keep believing in Possibility and dreaming the Sweetest of Dreams... 

Sweet Dreams,
