Dreams

Yesterday, I had a long talk with myself on the topic of dreams. Would I sacrifice a relationship for a dream? Would I sacrifice a dream for a relationship?

As I am currently single, this topic doesn't really concern me at the moment. However, in the future, if I happen to find myself in a relationship and I am offered a dream job somewhere not in the United States, what would I do? I find myself wondering what God would want me to do, because he brought me here to this moment. Had certain things not occurred last April, I would never have applied for an international internship for that same fear. However, it did and I did. And I am thrilled beyond belief to be achieving a lifelong dream of mine... I think about it every day, I worry, I get excited, and I get nervous. Why? Because I have to start over, in French!
When operators ask me what I'm doing on the plant floor when I come by their post, I tell them. Now I'm starting to think about telling them in French! It's a good exercise for me.

So, my question to you is: what would YOU do? Would you give away a perfectly stable & healthy, happy relationship for the dream/job of a lifetime? Or would you give up on your dream to stay with your perfect mate?

Food for thought.


(Also: decided to put music at the top, so while you're reading you can jam out to music! Isn't Santana's voice amazing? So jealous...)
