Multi-Millionaire...

I was hoping, while I was writing this, that I would be a multi-millionaire. Unfortunately, my plan did not turn out to be that way. So I am hoping to hit a hole in one the first day I hit the links with my new (only been used 2 times) golf clubs. I mean, the odds are clearly in my favor to hit a hole in one, right? Since I didn't win the Mega Millions, I know I can at least hit a hole in one. Hey, maybe even get struck by lightening while I am hitting the ball with my golf club. Now that would be pretty intense.

I think the best part of yesterday, was not only dreaming about what I would do with all that money, but to see the smile on everyone's faces when they were buying the tickets. To see the joy they got for those few seconds, dreaming of winning all that money. I have to say, when I went in to buy my ticket I was smiling ear to ear after all, I picked out my own numbers and I thought for once in my life I was psychic. And for those few seconds, I truly believed I was. (Okay, I thought I was psychic for more than a few seconds, but really, who's counting anyways?)

The joy of believing you could possibly be a multi-millionaire is truly incredible. What are some of the ways you would spend your money? What would you do first?

Honestly, I think the best part of the lottery is the dreaming of what you would do with all that money. The planning in your head, the wonderful thoughts of taking care of your family and friends, the dream of buying land and building a new house, the dream of being a professional Philanthropist, of building schools in Africa, like Oprah, or bringing in clean water to places that don't have clean water, traveling the world and trying to make it a better place. O, the possibilities!

Isn't dreaming a wonderful thing?

What is life without dreaming about the "What ifs"? Sometimes the "what ifs" are what keep us going, to see what the future will hold for us. But my "what ifs" are not the past "what ifs", but the future "what ifs". We can't change the past, we can only move forward and learn from it and decide to make changes so that the days ahead will have the outcome of what you dream of.

Think about your "what ifs", make a list, a drawing or a vision board. Dream big. You never know what will happen.
