CHRISTINE'S BLOG
Welcome! I love to write, and I love sharing what I write with my readers. I vary my style as much as I can-posting events, creative non-fiction, prose and poetry and the occasional video. Enjoy!

Dreams Begin With Little Steps
Dreams:
By: Christine McFarlane
Dreams begin with little steps. Putting one foot in front of the other, marching on even when you feel despair and think you're going nowhere. My dreams began that way also. I grew up not believing in myself due to circumstances not entirely my fault.
Dreams begin with little steps. Putting one foot in front of the other, marching on even when you lose focus and want to turn down a different road. A road that can destroy you, if you're not careful. I know that road, I was on it for way too long, yet I turned myself around with the help of too many to list here in this post.
Dreams begin with little steps. Putting one foot in front of the other, marching on and reaching out to say "I am ready, I will listen to the changes I know I need to make."
Reach for the stars, don't be afraid because dreams begin with little steps. Putting one foot in front of the other and telling yourself
"I will not give in, no matter how hard it gets."
Dreams begin with little steps. I've begun to follow mine. I am a survivor, you can be too.
