Or are your dreams long-buried somewhere because you don't believe in having dreams anymore? Or are you too caught up with life to think about your dreams? I remember someone once mentioned that if we don't know what our dreams are, then how do we know we've reached them when we did? Isn't that an awakening statement? Like they said, we'll only pass by this life only once, so let's dig out your long forgotten dreams and make a leap for them. Here's some ideas to help you along in scrapping about your dreams. My Favorites One ought every day at least to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words. This theme is inspired by the song, "My Favorites Things" from the classic movie, "The Sound of Music". You'll have unique and different tastes and styles from the rest of the population. Occasionally, you'll have the good fortune to find someone who shares similar favorite things. This is an absolutely fun theme to scrapbook about and yet it says so loudly of what you are.
