We Need To Believe

In Ourselves

By Ruth Elizabeth StiffPublished 2 years ago • 1 min read
The late Queen was a real Inspiration for every woman on Earth

“Your dream

doesn’t have an expiration date.

Take a deep breath

and try again”

It is only society

and other ‘opinions’

that put time or a date stamp

on dreams.

Some ‘start’ their dreams

when they are five years old,

“I always wanted to be a fireman

and now I am!”

We sometimes

‘forget’ our dreams

because we are so busy

in our lives,

but

“they” are still there.

And when we do

‘start’ on our dreams,

there can be so many

set-backs and failures.

But we must not be discouraged!

We must “keep going”

at our Dreams,

bouncing back

again and again,

learning all of the time.

Until,

at last,

we “Have” our Dreams.

And we’ll be ever so glad

that we didn’t give up.

During all of this time,

we need to pace ourselves,

having breaks

and doing the “3 R’s”.

Rest.

Relax.

Rebuild.

We need to

Believe In Ourselves

that we “can do it!”

When we think about people in history

who achieved their “dreams”,

especially later on in life,

we draw Encouragement from them.

My Inspiration

has always been

our late Queen Elizabeth II.

It would have made her life easier

to hand over the Crown at a certain age,

but she didn’t

and carried on,

becoming the longest reigning monarch

in England.

What an Example!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
