For the Dreamers

I'm a dreamer. I'm always dreaming up vacations, house plans, careers, etc. My friends and family probably think I'm crazy because I always talk about all my dreams and plans to them.
 "I'm moving to Hawaii, I'm really going to do it." 
"Why shouldn't we live where other people vacation?" 
"I'm going on vacation here, here, and here, etc." 
"I'm going to run a half marathon." 
"I'm going to have 6 kids." 
"Rhyno and I are going to own our own gym and salon."
Some of these dreams were shot down by me. I never really want to run a half marathon. blah. And I'm pretty sure I'm done with the 2 kids I have now. I'll always dream of living in Hawaii, or anywhere it doesn't snow. 
Some of these dreams are shot down by fear. Fear. Blah. 
For the last 7 years I've worked for the same company. I was hired when I was 19. Still practically a baby. I went through hair school while working there. I dreamed of working and owning salons. But I never quit my job to work in a salon. It's a risk. My job has been so stable and flexible when I've needed it to be. Welp, I kicked fear in the face and I quit my job today. I'm still pretty scared. But mostly excited. I'll be working in a cute little salon starting April 8th! I hope to be changing people's lives one head at a time. :)
Dream on Dreamers.
