The idea of following your dreams, or following your heart, has spiritual significance for me. It’s not about romance, becoming famous, money, finding a career or job, or becoming successful as the world defines it.
After I began having profound spiritual experiences many years ago, my goal became to learn how to listen and follow the inner Voice that I could hear so clearly, and one of the ways it led me was through feelings of joy. I would find myself drawn to something or a direction, and as I followed these inner prompts, the experiences I had taught me and led me to a more profound sense of peace and a deepening trust in that Voice. The ordinary became extraordinary when I listened and followed, and inexplicable experiences often blossomed from what formerly seemed mundane.
It’s never too late to do this, and when I forget and try to guide myself (which is always a mess), I can always begin again…in this moment.
Sometimes these inner nudges made no sense to me, but when I put that aside and trusted, things came together like scattered pieces of a perfect puzzle that had been silently waiting for me to simply trust and step aside.
For me, “dreaming” is another way of saying to listen within for those sometimes little prompts of joy, and when I follow them, I watch the impossible become possible. Not even the sky is the limit.


Today, I drove to a little town here in New Hampshire and stopped at a little shop called the Ginger Fox.
(I love that name!🐾🦊🐾 )
It’s a small coffee bar with the best yummie coffee ever. Right next door is a beautiful animal rescue that looks like a gorgeous New England farmhouse, with horses, snow, and picturesque grounds with caretakers walking about. (😍Heavenly!)
Anyway, I parked there and drank my coffee while taking in the serenity and love that surrounded this place. I think it’s the dreams you were talking about in this post, Jane. We get to make our own magic. Moments like make me so happy and if we ask our Guide to show us they’ll appear.

I have a very special and dearest friend I care more for than anyone – that I share my renaissance dreams with because it puts a smile on their face whenever I do so, but the funny thing is, they do not realize that anything is possible if you “believe;” And, dreams really can and do come true ✨🌈🦄 Sometimes just the right magic with just the right timing is enough to manifest in such a way as to make anything possible — anything!

One of my favorite friends is a dreamer and connects to the universe in such a beautiful way. They shared with me once that they were always looking out the window at school dreaming and disconnecting from the . . . boredom. I see this person as a renaissance soul and such a uniquely interesting person that creates out of their dreams. We would have a very flat, dull, and colorless world without dreamers.
