DREAMS THAT CHANGED

This piece is courtesy of a friend (Esther), I've been wanting to

write about dreams... i hope to be back soon.

When i was seven i had a dream to become a soldier,

it was because of a movie i saw where the soldier was

well celebrated when he died.

This changed because after much thought i didn't want

to die in battle.

I moved from there to having dreams of being the next superwoman,

i'll not only save Nigeria, I’ll save the world.

All this while i knew this was impossible, because, i was no astrologist,

who would receive extra-ordinary powers after my space-craft crashes.

This changed because of the possibilities.

As i matured i thought about love and how sweet it was,

so i decided to be best friends with a guy who would love me,

we would do things together and travel the world on adventures,

we would have a CODE language that we could use when trouble knocks.

This too changed as all my best male friends were always asking out other

girls.....i probably shouldn't let the dream go.

Now i'm older and wiser and still learning,

i decided to create a world for myself, helping people and myself.

Creating solutions to problems and having lots of adventure and money,

This is my truest dream because it is happening,

Dreams inside of dreams that are coming to reality.
