Day 1 - revised

Wishes and dreams

carried by the wind

to a place

no one knows

but everyone dreams of.

Mother Nature's wish.

Mother Nature's dream.

Peace.

Love.

Happiness.

All condensed into one thing.

One dream.

One wish.

One idea.

That everyone must live by.

That everyone strives for.

But why do you strive for an idea?

Why do you strive for dreams or wishes?

After all, they’re just dreams and wishes.

They’re just ideas.

Nobody can tell you this one idea is right.

They cannot tell you with the sincere truth and knowing from deep within their pitted souls.

Nobody can tell you what your eternal destiny is.

You have to tell yourself.

You have to say it with sincere truth and knowing from deep within your own wandering soul.

And to find that knowing, that truth,

You must search for your wishes and dreams

That have been carried by the wind

To a place

No one knows

But everyone dreams of.
