The 29 Gifts Advisory Board met last week at my mother’s house in Nebraska and one of the assignments we all have is to write about our dream work. If we could fashion the most creative and joyful day, week, month what would you spend your time doing? Imagine time money and other resources were unlimited.
When I ask myself that question, so many things come up in answer:
I want to write more books and tell more stories.
I want to make movies.
I want to collaborate with other artists and professionals who can help push my work closer to wowness.
I want to inspire and motivate other budding artists to make their voices heard and work seen.
I want to exist in an environment that allows me to be present and available to family and friends.
And that is just the first five things that come to mind. I’m sure a well of words will burst free when I sit down with my journal.
This is my gift for today. To share this DREAM WORK WRITING EXERCISE with you. If you try it, feel free to share your ideas and insights with us by commenting on this discussion.

If you don't name them somewhere how will they ever come true. I will get my mind to straighten my dream out so others can understand. Thank you for the idea. deb
