Dreamways

The dreams that are our aspirations are what give most of us hope, the sense of a positive and meaningful future.  What we aspire to becomes a shaping and driving force in how we conduct our days.  The  significance of having and cultivating aspirations is reflected in the Latin root of the word itself, "spirare," which means "breath."  Aspirations are as vital to human health as the physical act of breathing.  Our aspirations breathe joy and purpose into our lives.  When someone says that they've lost their dreams and without them life feels flat, this is often the level of dream that is being referred to.
