More Details about conquering worry and living your dreams here.
There are only two things that we can take with us when we leave this life, and they are those riches of eternity known as knowledge and relationships. The understanding and experience we gain here and the relationships we forge with family and friends last beyond this life and into the eternities. A major part of my life vision involves being able to spend time with my family and friends, to visit friends across the world and to have them here to visit us.
This past week, I've had the opportunity to have my good friend Cathy Nattress and her family here to stay with us. Cathy is the inventor of a fantastic new tote bag and purse that can be used as a diaper bag, book bag or church bag. The unique thing about Cathy's bag is that it comes with a purse that fits easily inside a side pocket of the bag. It's perfect for those who are tired of carrying too many bags. Tote-N-Go is a full size bag with a purse that matches. You can carry your tote bag and purse with one strap. The purse slides easily into the side of the bag. When you don't need the larger bag, just take your purse out and carry it by itself.
It's exciting to watch Cathy launch this idea that's been percolating in her mind for nearly 30 years. After reading "You Can't Fly If You're Still Clutching the Dirt" she decided to do something about her dream, and now she's helping moms stay at home and earn money sewing the bags while offering a fantastic product. It's a testament to vision, faith and the law of gestation. All good seeds which are nourished with faith, focus and gratitude grow into their physical form in their due time.
While she's been here, I helped Cathy with her Web site, and we've done a lot of sight seeing. It's a joy to spend time with good friends and to feel comfortable having them in our home.
What dream have you put on a back burner because you weren't sure "how" you'd ever do it? Don't give up on your dreams. Nurture them with vision, faith, focus and gratitude.
