Our Dream Came True

Being unemployed gives me an abundant amount of time to think. I think. I worry. I contemplate. And more often that I like to admit I worry some more.

Now I am not normally one to share my opinions or my two sense worth because in all honesty that was never what this blog was meant to be about. Rather a portal to keep close to those we love that are so far away. However sometimes realisations do deserve to be shared because if you were closer I know that I would be telling you this in person.

Something that I realised yesterday is that it is not enough for your dream to come true. You have to constantly live that dream. Here Josh and I are living our dream. We have moved over here and I feel like I have a constant stream of worries or thoughts towards those that I am missing. And I need to stop.

This is my dream. Our dream. And it came true. So I need to get over the worry and be here right now. Don't get me wrong when I see my bank balance heomerrging constantly I do worry that I am still yet to get a job. And it is so easy to compare to what would be if I was back home. But I am still here. Here in my dream.

For me this means to be bold and not afraid of what might be. To not wallow on the fact that I miss my family and friends. To not worry about the fact no jobs have called me back. But to be here in this moment because this is what I dreamed of.

I guess this advice isn't specific to living overseas either. If your dream come true is finding your prince and getting married. You would still have to commit to that dream. Because marriage isn't easy. Same with being a parent. Or getting the job of your dreams.

Life isn't always easy. But it is great.

More than great. It is a dream come true.
